My wait is over, I installed the latest snapshot today.  I'm glad to
report that now I can debug programs, although the simple invocation
of the debugger, as in

   lldb some.exe
or
   lldb -f some.exe

still crashes.  I need to invoke lldb without any arguments, then load
the program with "file some.exe", and finally run it with "process
launch".  Then it works.  Is this expected?

There's also a strange problem with error messages: I don't see them
until I quit the debugger.  For example, if I say "file foo.exe" where
foo.exe doesn't exist, I get the prompt back with no error message,
and without the usual announcement that foo.exe will be debugged.
Only after I type "quit" to exit the debugger, I see the error message
about foo.exe being non-existent.  Am I doing something wrong?

Thanks.
