153  * @brief Demangling routine.
154  * ABI-mandated entry point in the C++ runtime library for demangling.
155  *
156  * @param __mangled_name A NUL-terminated character string
157  * containing the name to be demangled.
158  *
159  * @param __output_buffer A region of memory, allocated with
160  * malloc, of @a *__length bytes, into which the demangled name is
161  * stored. If @a __output_buffer is not long enough, it is
162  * expanded using realloc. @a __output_buffer may instead be NULL;
163  * in that case, the demangled name is placed in a region of memory
164  * allocated with malloc.
165  *
166  * @param __length If @a __length is non-NULL, the length of the
167  * buffer containing the demangled name is placed in @a *__length.
168  *
169  * @param __status @a *__status is set to one of the following values:
170  * 0: The demangling operation succeeded.
171  * -1: A memory allocation failure occurred.
172  * -2: @a mangled_name is not a valid name under the C++ ABI mangling rules.
173  * -3: One of the arguments is invalid.
174  *
175  * @return A pointer to the start of the NUL-terminated demangled
176  * name, or NULL if the demangling fails. The caller is
177  * responsible for deallocating this memory using @c free.
178  *
179  * The demangling is performed using the C++ ABI mangling rules,
180  * with GNU extensions. For example, this function is used in
181  * __gnu_cxx::__verbose_terminate_handler.
182  *
183  * See http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/manual/bk01pt12ch39.html
184  * for other examples of use.
185  *
186  * @note The same demangling functionality is available via
187  * libiberty (@c <libiberty/demangle.h> and @c libiberty.a) in GCC
188  * 3.1 and later, but that requires explicit installation (@c
189  * --enable-install-libiberty) and uses a different API, although
190  * the ABI is unchanged.

649  * alias 'abi'.
650  *
651  * A brief overview of an ABI is given in the libstdc++ FAQ, question
652  * 5.8 (you may have a copy of the FAQ locally, or you can view the online
653  * version at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libstdc++/faq.html#5_8 ).
654  *
655  * GCC subscribes to a cross-vendor ABI for C++, sometimes
656  * called the IA64 ABI because it happens to be the native ABI for that
657  * platform. It is summarized at http://www.codesourcery.com/cxx-abi/
658  * along with the current specification.
659  *
660  * For users of GCC greater than or equal to 3.x, entry points are
661  * available in <cxxabi.h>, which notes, <em>'It is not normally
662  * necessary for user programs to include this header, or use the
663  * entry points directly. However, this header is available should
664  * that be needed.'</em>
