I have a similar fix on the compile branch. :-)

Not just language, but language_minimal.

Good catch. I missed that.

The only additional change that I have in my compile branch is
that since this type's name could come from a user, it needs to be canonicalized.
But I can hit that when(ever?!) I start submitting some of the precursor
patches that I have. [I have a test that demonstrates the need for
canonicalization in the c++compile branch.]

Couldn't this be language-dependent? [Yikes!]
Also note that there are a handful of places where this could be used
[follow-up patch?] in linespec.c, location.c, symtab.c. Maybe more.

We have logic for c++ operators all over the place. Note to self: this needs
to be cleaned up/consolidated.

I think a(n explicit) mention that the input is assumed to be an operator name. It's
mentioned in the name, but please consider repeating that in the comment. It's important.

Man, I'd *swear* that we have this code repeated in numerous places, but
we actually don't. [Not that I looked that hard...]

Just a passing comment: I'm kinda torn on this. When new languages are added,
this is going to be yet another place that language implementers are going to
have to modify. While a language method would probably be better (for some
definition of "better"), I don't want to see the language vector bloat beyond
control either. So IMO there's no clear better path.

At least this part is language-agnostic. That's a plus.

I think the comments for both of these functions should be updated, since
they pass language_minimal to strncmp_iw_with_mode. Therefore,

  strncmp_iw_with_mode (string1, string2, len, MATCH_PARAMS, a_language)

may not necessarily equal

  strncmp_iw (string1, string2)

That may not be obvious to the casual user. Some sort of caveat seems prudent.

While most of these parameters are rather obvious usage, it is not obvious to
me why a strncmp-like function needs a language definition. [Of course,
I understand why after reading the code, but a brief mention of how LANGUAGE
affects the operation might be useful IMO. YMMV.]
