If you want to do that, then IMHO you should at least mention this in
the binutils NEWS file, to point people who are looking for c++filt in
the binutils distribution to the gcc distribution.
This change could potentially break existing binary packages which
depend on the existence of c++filt but express this as a dependency on
the binutils package rather than the c++filt executable.
