libstdc++ people:
I guess you have to make up your mind: Ivan's request for clarification
and changes to enhance usability are definitely valid. You can't tell
him in one PR that the one demangler isn't what he wants to use and
point him to the other one, and then with the other one tell him that
this is actually not for public use and therefore not optimized for
usability. That just doesn't go very well with users.
I think his requests to
- give the allocator a default argument
- remove references to internals from the public interface
- allow code to be compiled
are valid indeed. Please consider alternatives beyond "this is how it is
intended".
W.
