[lldb-dev] sharing code between lldb and AddressSanitizer

[Greg Clayton]

Dmitry,

Can you attach an example ELF file with DWARF and the main.cpp source file to the bug so that I can take a look? "-pie" is not a valid argument for our current darwin clang++, so this might be a linux specific compiler driver option.
