Is this a header file include issue? All files in "include/lldb/API" should only be pulling in stuff from "lldb/API/*.h" and from "lldb/lldb-*.h". 

I will try and build this on my Ubuntu install and see if I can recognize anything. Can you send me a patch with your SWIG changes in? I can then check it out and let you know what I find.
