<li>
+ Fix local variable lookup in the
lldb expression parser.
+
+ <p>
+ The injection of local
variables into the clang expression parser is
+ currently done incorrectly -
it happens too late in the lookup. This results
+ in namespace variables &
functions, same named types and ivars shadowing
+ locals when it should be the
other way around. An attempt was made to fix
+ this by manually inserting all
the visible local variables into wrapper function
+ in the expression text. This
mostly gets the job done but that method
+ means you have to realize all
the types
+ and locations of all local
variables for even the simplest of expressions, and
+ when run on large programs
(e.g. lldb) it would cause unacceptable delays. And
+ it was very fragile since an
error in realizing any of the locals would cause
+ all expressions run in that
context to fail. We need to fix this by adjusting
+ the points where name lookup
calls out to lldb in clang.

Fix the event handling/process
control machinery to support calling SB & Commands
everywhere, and to support
non-stop debugging
