FYI:

This may be sufficient but it is not necessary for the:

error: undefined symbol: lldb_private::AppleObjCRuntime::GetFoundationVersion()

type of message, at least for some TARGET_ARCH 's. (I've not seen the other
undefined symbols yet in my activities so I make no claims for them.)

My powerpc64 example was using ld V2.28 (and other binutils)
from devel/powerpc64-binutils (/usr/local/powerpc64-freebsd/bin/ld
and such), not lld. (lld does not work overall for powerpc64: it
is not even an option for TARGET_ARCH=powerpc64 last I knew. Nor
does the older type of system ld work overall for powerpc64.)

So -B/usr/local/powerpc64-freebsd/bin/ was in use in the c++
command that ran the linker:

c++ -target powerpc64-unknown-freebsd12.0 --sysroot=/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang_altbinutils/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/tmp -B/usr/local/powerpc64-freebsd/bin/ -O2 -pipe -I/usr/src/contrib/llvm/tools/lldb/include -I/usr/src/contrib/llvm/tools/clang/include -DCLANG_ENABLE_ARCMT -DCLANG_ENABLE_STATIC_ANALYZER -I/usr/src/lib/clang/include -I/usr/src/contrib/llvm/include -DLLVM_BUILD_GLOBAL_ISEL -D__STDC_LIMIT_MACROS -D__STDC_CONSTANT_MACROS -DLLVM_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE=\"powerpc64-unknown-freebsd12.0\" -DLLVM_HOST_TRIPLE=\"powerpc64-unknown-freebsd12.0\" -DDEFAULT_SYSROOT=\"\" -ffunction-sections -fdata-sections -g -fstack-protector-strong -Wno-empty-body -Wno-string-plus-int -Wno-unused-const-variable -Wno-tautological-compare -Wno-unused-value -Wno-parentheses-equality -Wno-unused-function -Wno-enum-conversion -Wno-unused-local-typedef -Wno-address-of-packed-member -Wno-switch -Wno-switch-enum -Wno-knr-promoted-parameter -Wno-parentheses -Qunused-arguments -std=c++11 -fno-exceptions -fno-rtti -stdlib=libc++ -Wno-c++11-extensions  -Wl,--gc-sections -o lldb.full  Driver.o /usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang_altbinutils/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/lib/clang/liblldb/liblldb.a /usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang_altbinutils/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/lib/clang/libclang/libclang.a /usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_clang_altbinutils/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/lib/clang/libllvm/libllvm.a  -ledit  -lpanel  -lncursesw -lz -lpthread;

llvm commands analogous to binutils commands need not be
involved at all, including no need of lld being involved.
