I've removed the wrong-code keyword, and closing this bug, as it isn't a dmd
issue. The code generated is correct, as -gc means D should pretend to be C...
Which means symbol names have to be mangled, as otherwise they are not valid C
symbols. It also means gdb won't demangle them, as it detects C and not D. The
correct solution for this bug is to add support for the D extensions to gdb,
there's nothing dmd can do about this without adding another debugging mode,
something I think is best avoided.
