Mark> MIPS_linkage_name (string) "1t"
Mark> So the first question is, how do I demangle this "1t"?
demangled = cplus_demangle (part_die->linkage_name, DMGL_TYPES);
Mark> Is that just a temporary name given to the anonymous struct?
Sort of. In C++ this construct gives a name to the type for linkage
purposes only. There is some wording in the standard along those lines.
Mark> Second question is how is gdb actually using this?
When constructing the anonymous type, gdb uses the linkage name to give
the type the name `t'. What is specifically useful to gdb about this
approach is that it can be decided locally whether this is necessary.
Previous iterations required a lot of complicated code to defer giving
names to types until all the DIEs had been read in.
