+ +

The majority of work since the last status update has been on + bugfixes and implementation of the remaining functionality + missing on &os;. Most of these improvements are now in the LLDB + snapshot in the base system, which has been updated to upstream + Subversion revision r202189. Some highlights of the new update + include:

+ + + +

LLDB is currently not yet built by default and may be enabled + by adding WITH_LLDB= to src.conf(5). A port + will be made available for those wo wish to track ongoing + development more closely.
