As a workaround, I patched my local copy of gdb to use the "verbose"
demangler mode, so the various flavors of constructors/destructors DO
have different names.  They are *weird* names, but at least you can
refer to their entry points by name that way.

It's a trivial patch.  It changes the way constructors are named in
gdb, but that doesn't seem to be a big deal if it changes them from
conventionally named but unuseable things into strangely named but
useable... 

Interested in that approach, as a stopgap -- rather than document the
restriction?
