Slap a _Z on that thing and we could demangle it automatically. The problems with doing so are that the demangling routines are linked in when they otherwise wouldn't be (so goes the argument, but I haven't verified it myself). Personally, I feel __cxa_demangler should just be present, full stop. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=14493 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You reported the bug, or are watching the reporter.
