I assumed the output of demanglers in libiberty and libstdc++ should
be the identical on the same C++ symbol. I copied that particular test
from libstdc++. Since the orginal test was changed, I thought I should
keep it in sync. I guess my assumption is wrong. What is the policy on
the outputs from demanglers between libiberty and libstdc++ on the same
C++ symbols?
