When I've had compilation issues caused by CommandLineTools, the cause has
been Homebrew's install of pkg-config. Since it's not always possible to
uninstall pkg-config, the solution I use is to add
`-DPKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE=/usr/bin/false` to CMake. On macOS, the Xcode SDK
includes the libraries lldb needs, and CMake finds them without needing
pkg-config. But when pkg-config is installed, the paths it provides from
CommandLineTools are used instead. Using `false` is to simulate failure, at
which point cmake continues on with its search and finds them in the SDK.
