[lldb-dev] std::shared_ptr, RTTI, and LLDB

Currently, LLDB uses std::shared_ptr.  With gcc (or at least gcc 4.4),
that means RTTI must be enabled.  However, LLVM and clang build with
RTTI disabled (at least by default), so an RTTI-enabled LLDB won't
link.  So I have two questions:

1. How difficult would it be to stop using shared_ptr?
2. Does the LLVM build in llvm.zip have RTTI enabled?  If so, how do
you build LLVM that way?
