lldb::pid_t is for any pid from any platform. ::pid_t should be used if you 
plan to actually call something from the local system, so you might need to 
"static_cast<::pid_t>(pid)" when making sys calls. Everything inside LLDB 
itself that is host host specific code should be dealing in lldb::pid_t and 
lldb::tid_t and when you enter code that _is_ platform specific, like any code 
in lldb/Source/Host or like ProcessLinux.cpp, you will need to static cast any 
lldb:: types down to system types.
