I agree with Ismail. I think we can fix this issue by making it possible to set the `PBM_PREFIX` in the scope that includes `ProtobufMutator.cmake` like this:

In `clang/cmake/modules/ProtobufMutator.cmake`:

```
if (NOT PBM_PREFIX) 
  set (PBM_PREFIX protobuf_mutator)
endif()
```

In `lldb/tools/lldb-fuzzer/lldb-expression-fuzzer/CMakeLists.txt`:

```
  set (PBM_PREFIX lldb_protobuf_mutator)
  include(ProtobufMutator)
```

That said, I think an even better way to do this is by using a cached variable that keep track of whether we've already included the external project. That way we don't have to create two different targets that are essentially the same. If I'm following the code correctly, all the variables that we rely on can be computed without the `ExternalProject_Add`. I imagine something like:

```
if (NOT PBM_PROJECT_ADDED) 
  ExternalProject_Add(${PBM_PREFIX}
    PREFIX ${PBM_PREFIX}
    GIT_REPOSITORY https://github.com/google/libprotobuf-mutator.git
    GIT_TAG master
    CMAKE_ARGS -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE}
    CMAKE_CACHE_ARGS -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER:FILEPATH=${CMAKE_C_COMPILER}
                     -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=${CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER}
    BUILD_BYPRODUCTS ${PBM_LIB_PATH} ${PBM_FUZZ_LIB_PATH}
    UPDATE_COMMAND ""
    INSTALL_COMMAND ""
    )
    set(PBM_PROJECT_ADDED TRUE CACHE BOOL
    "Whether the ProtoBufMutator external project was added")
endif()
```

I think that should preclude us from creating the target twice.
