Then you should be able to have a ".lldbinit-hexagon-lldb" file that will get 
sourced. The main questions is if there is a good place to put this file when 
there are no bundles on linux or windows. On LLDB, the LLDB.framework contains 
everything we need (headers, resources, support binaries (debugserver, 
lldb-gdbserver lldb-platform, darwin-debug, and more) and the lldb python 
modules.

Maybe we can start paving the way for bundles on windows and linux with LLDB?
