This revision is now accepted and ready to land.

Clever (hopefully not too clever)!  Not having to derive a special class from 
Visitor is really nice.

LGTM.

Well, it is simpler, but we still have that non-const ref to symbol, which is 
what originally threw me.  I don't see a way to get around that, and I like the 
new solution better than having to derive your own visitor.


================
Comment at: 
source/Plugins/SymbolFile/NativePDB/PdbFPOProgramToDWARFExpression.cpp:46
+  Node *result = it->second;
+  Dispatch(result); // Recursively process the result.
+  return result;    // And return it.

Oh yes.  I was looking at the Dispatch calls in the DWARF CodeGen class by 
mistake.  Those are Visitor<void>.  Perfect.
