[lldb-dev] How to link lldb on i386

[Pavel Labath via lldb-dev]

Is it only lldb-server you are having problems with? (i.e., are you
able to link liblldb.so?)

If so, then you might be able to make it link by reducing the number
of things that go into it. Right now lldb-server uses only a fraction
of its linker input, but we still need to pass in everything (and rely
on linker garbage collection to make sense of it) because it is not
possible to make a clear cut. This has several problems, most
important being that it is very easy to drastically increase the size
of the executable by random code perturbations. Being able to remove
all of clang from linker inputs would be a massive improvement, and it
would solve your problem as well. However, it is not going to be
easy...
