[lldb-dev] just me, or lldb 3.4 is very buggy?

Hi guys,

I notice that Jun is on 32-bit and I can also confirm that I haven't found
it possible to get lldb working under 32-bit Linux. LLDB can't currently be
compiled with clang right now due to this issue:

http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=18311

And compiling with gcc (4.8.1 in my case) results in this assertion failure
when trying to debug anything:

http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=17802

Hope that helps,
Andrew
