Yeah, what's up with that? I looked briefly at the code, and there's a
comment that says that it only demangles a certain subset of symbols
because the others are "useless" when it comes to ABI's, or something
like that. I have no idea what that means and why it matters. What's
wrong with demangle() demangling *everything*? Isn't that what it's
supposed to be doing anyway?
