Actually, in this scenario, we'd like the demangler to be only a part
of libsupc++.a, so that the "verbose exception handling" (which is the
default) can be used by programs which otherwise would not need to link
against libstdc++.  There's a PR for this, but I forget the number.

The spelling possibilities alone are entertaining...

    -less-liberty
    -facist
    -dictatorial   (this might confuse the debugging dumps)
