(crossposted in ldc and debugger; please reply in ldc)

As an FYI, I added support for dlang's UTF character types to LLDB (support for string/wstring/dstring is available through a modified version of the python script I previously posted on this newsgroup) and mailed a patch to the lldb-dev mailing list.

Here it is if anyone needs this support for their own debugging, or if any of the LDC crew are familiar with the LLVM review process and wish to champion it:
