Then for systems that add underscore prefix to compiler identifiers, dmd
.mangleof for extern(C) identifiers needs to include '_' prefix. I'll
try this locally on OS X and see what breaks.
It also means ldc merge-2.067, which just got C++ object symbols correct
with https://github.com/ldc-developers/ldc/pull/889, also needs to
include '_' prefix in .mangleof result for extern(C++).
There should be some helper to determine if compiler will add
underscores. Otherwise I can see some unittests getting ugly.
