Are you sure? The demangler is part of libiberty, not GCC in
particular. In fact, GCC itself has no need for the demangler :-) Of
course, it'd better be kept in sync with whatever mangling GCC uses,
but I don't think it's really maintained as part of GCC. Not that a
bug in the GCC bug database would be a bad idea, but you risk getting
this kind of answer and having the bug report closed :-)
