bug#66575: [PATCH] Gud lldb support

So what is the currently blessed way to communicate with LLDB?

I only have comments about trivialities here; someone else should deal with the serious stuff.

There is usually no need to import rx explicitly. The necessary macros and functions are autoloaded.

'Their', 'deduced'.

(You can write (not ":") instead of (not (any ":")) if you like.)
If the file name can have an absolute directory part, then it may run into trouble on Windows (C:\Some\Dir\File.c).

Sad that we throw away the column number here, but perhaps that's just a limitation of gud.el.

Anyway, a big step up from not having any support at all. Thank you!

Would you include a NEWS entry as well?
