Oh it's a known bug for over a year already :(

It is a bit of a show stopper for me, since the mangled name that 
I have isn't always correct (CastXML uses Clang and that seems to 
pick different calling conventions sometimes, than what MSVC 
would do, so the mangled names that I get are not guaranteed to 
be correct).

Well, I'll work around it for now, thanks for the answer.
