See d-demangle-expected in the libiberty testsuite, in particular:

_D8demangle17__T4testVde0A8P6Zv
demangle.test!(42.0000)

_D8demangle16__T4testVdeA8P2Zv
demangle.test!(42.0000)

_D8demangle18__T4testVdeN0A8P6Zv
demangle.test!(-42.0000)

_D8demangle31__T4testVde0F6E978D4FDF3B646P7Zv
demangle.test!(123.456)


I doubt they would need adjusting.
