I ran into this too, but haven't had the chance to look into it further yet. > Didn't we have compaq demangler support in binutils at some time? (I'm > using 2.10.0.27-0.cvs20001011.2). Do I now have to use the binutils > provided with cxx (I'd rather not do that), or would downgrading > binutils help? Hmmm...not sure. I'll look into it, but I think I know what happened to the compaq demangler support (might've fallen out of the package when I recently switched from H.J. Lu's sources to the CVS...I don't think the demangler support was committed to the main tree). I'll check it out. I think that I might even have the binutils patch from Compaq laying around somewhere. If so, I'll apply it against the current binutils and do another upload. If not, though, it may have to wait until H.J. releases a new version (we really need at least the current CVS version in woody for some other archs). C
