That's a great observation, however I get the problem with 1.17.24
on i386. dpkg-gensymbols does not demangle a few symbols and I don't
know why (I'd have to dig dpkg-gensymbols, but I have no time right now).

I also don't think it will change anything, but it is still rather mysterious
why these symbols do not demangle on some archs.
I'll leave your report open, but I'll mark it blocked by my previous report,
since we should understand this anyway.
