As explained in a private mail: This is a bug in c++filt. Since gcc
2.8 (or so), the constant in the array indicates the last index, i.e. one less than the number of elements.

So yes, g++ 2.7.2 and egcs are not binary compatible. This is
unfortunate, but you typically need to recompile everything if you
upgrade to a new major version of g++. Even more unfortunate, this
won't be the last time we have to break binary compatibility.
