[Bug libstdc++/16848] code in /ext/demangle.h appears broken


------- Additional Comments From bangerth at dealii dot org  2004-08-02 13:26 -------
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.
