I think it's fine, but I believe you'll also need #133093 for this to make a difference. |

Thank you, I wanted this to be backported but wasn't sure how to do it :) |

Can this be merged now? |

Hey, This solves an issue where running lldb-server-20 with a non-absolute path (for example, when it's installed into `/usr/bin` and the user runs it as `lldb-server-20 ...` and not `/usr/bin/lldb-server-20 ...`) fails with `error: spawn_process failed: execve failed: No such file or directory`. The underlying issue is that when run that way, it attempts to execute a binary named `lldb-server-20` from its current directory. This is also a mild security hazard because lldb-server is often being run as root in the directory /tmp, meaning that an unprivileged user can create the file /tmp/lldb-server-20 and lldb-server will execute it as root. (although, well, it's a debugging server we're talking about, so that may not be a real concern) I haven't previously contributed to this project; if you want me to change anything in the code please don't hesitate to let me know. (cherry picked from commit 945c494)
