Comment (by jakehurst):

 OK, googled a little deeper and found this article:
 http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/lldb-dev/2016-November/011568.html

 The source code is here:

 https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-
 project/lldb/branches/google/testing/unittests/SymbolFile/PDB/Inputs/test-
 pdb.cpp

 And it definitely does nothing. Most of these AV are heuristic, it's
 probably suspicious about the fact that it's linked with unusual settings
 (ie /nodefaultlib) which we did in order to minimize the binary size (the
 pdb is quite large if we don't do this)

 So, this is benign.
