Maybe I'm wrong but I think there are some notes to that effect in
cp/NEWS:

*** Changes in GCC 3.1:

[...]

* The C++ ABI has been fixed so that `void (A::*)() const' is mangled as
"M1AKFvvE", rather than "MK1AFvvE" as before. This change only affects
pointer to cv-qualified member function types.
Thanks, that's quite clear.  So it looks like the problem is that
a mangler bug was fixed in 3.1, but that nobody ever made the
corresponding fix in the demangler.
