Hi Tony. There are new security mechanisms in Mac OS X 10.11 El Capitan,
called System Integrity Protection, but I don't recognize this failure mode.
Try a stripped down example, like
$ echo 'int main () { }' > /tmp/a.c
$ xcrun clang /tmp/a.c -o /tmp/a.out
$ xcrun lldb /tmp/a.out
(lldb) br s -n main
(lldb) r
That should work. That's a baseline, then we can start working on why your
example isn't working.
