I was hoping someone would remember..  Oh well.  It turns out that

cvs diff -D"2003-12-01 23:54Z" -D"2003-12-01 23:56Z"

gives the fix for the problem with "raise".  This was the ChangeLog
entry:

2003-11-29  Ian Lance Taylor  <ian@wasabisystems.com>

	* cp-demangle.c (d_demangle): Only return success if we consumed
	the entire demangled string.
	(is_ctor_or_dtor): Likewise.

	* testsuite/demangle-expected: Revert one part of 2003-06-26 patch
	to restore expected result of EDG test case to original expected
	result.
