I proposed originally to add check-lldb as numbers are easy to get idea
of how much work is still to do. Unfortunately as mentioned by Michal,
these data statistics wouldn't be meaningful as we return
XFAIL/UNSUPPORTED ones as success.

If I would need to generalize - the current LLDB/NetBSD support is quite
reliable in its minimal scope of support and the remaining feature are
mostly about adding support of missing features that require solid
kernel behavior. I'm busy on my side to make the kernel part a stable
foundation.
