I think that had have been suggested.
I was avoiding it (I hack on too many versions of GCC already!), but
it's becoming necessary...
I'm glad to see your implementation of decltype is more complete than
what I had 2-3 years ago. However, the manling issue still needs to
be resolved. There is an open PR for that -- involving typeof.
Looks like there are a couple PRs against typeof for similar issues.
With decltype, I chose to skip the expression entirely, because
mangling arbitrary expressions is a mess that I am eager to avoid.
When they reopen the C++ ABI discussions for C++0x, that'll be the
time to deal with this mangling issue...
Cheers,
Doug
