It is more a nitpick but I do not find too great that a build without
demangling support will fail "eu-stack -r ..." with:
eu-stack: invalid option -- 'r'
Try `stack --help' or `stack --usage' for more information.
Despite it could display the information requested.
-r should be IMO just ignored for builds without demangling support.
The demangling would be just a best-effort. After all a mangled symbol name
is still a valid symbol name.
The current USE_DEMANGLE #ifdefs in elfutils are in src/nm.C where it is used
in opposite way - to explicitly enable demangling with -C. There it makes
sense to fail if -C was explicitly requested and the build cannot provide it.
Thanks,
