Ok, I agree that it's not a bug, but it is an annoying. There could be some
mapping from a compressed name too full one, and linker should output correct
mangled name. Its output supposed to be read by human, isn't it? It is supposed
to help user in tracking the problem, not for confusing him.

Besides, showing external data in internal representation isn't very good as it
breaks incapsulation :)
