(This is originally from a thread on lldb-commits, but it seems more
appropriate here, so I'm responding here.

Err, rewind.  If we have the swig as a service, then I think the static
binding does have value.  Because I don't want to hit the network every
single time I build, so it mostly solves the issue you mentioned about
network connectivity, because building LLDB doesn't require a network
connection unless you touch a swig interface file.

The thing I would like some guidance on from the Apple side is this: If I
make the swig service, can you (and will you) use code generated by swig
3.x?  If not, there's no value in the swig service.
