Hi,
I built a simple program with dmd a.d and tried to observe
symbols with nm --demangle=dlang ./a. However, I can observe
that only part of the symbols (e.g., std.stdio.File.size()) are
demangled, while others remain in their original name (e.g.,
_D3std5stdio4File8opAssignMFNfSQBdQBcQzZv). Is this a bug of nm?
It probably doesn't support the new back-referencing yet.

Moreover, what is the suggested way to demangle symbol names in
dlang?
ddemangle (it should be part of your distribution or release
archive)
