+      <p>LLDB is the debugger project associated with Clang/LLVM.
+	It supports the Mac OS X, Linux, &os; and Windows platforms.  It
+	builds on existing components in the larger LLVM project, for
+	example using Clang's expression parser and LLVM's disassembler.</p>
+
+      <p>The LLDB in the base system was upgraded to version 3.6.0
+	as part of the Clang and LLVM upgrade.  In the upstream
+	repository, Justin Hibbits added support for live and core file
+	debugging on PowerPC, and Ed Maste added core file support for
+	&os;/arm64.</p>
