Thanks.

Looks like Apple's LLDB from the Xcode command-line tools.

Mine says "lldb version 14.0.6", and comes from "brew install llvm".  (Which I need for 'llvm-vscode', which I need for 'dap-mode', which I need for debugging with LLDB inside of Emacs, which is because of <known long story here>, and <another, shorter story here>).

I need '--overwrite' because it allows me to reload the code in a running LLDB.  Apple's LLDB seems to '--overwrite' by default, while mine gives an error:

  cannot add command: user command exists and force replace not set

\o/

Maybe I can somehow pythonese if '--overwrite' is supported or not.
