------- Additional Comments From neroden@gcc.gnu.org  2003-05-23 19:11 -------
This area of code has changed a lot.  The demangling portion of the code is now
located in gnu/gcj/runtime/NameFinder.java and natNameFinder.cc.  It's still done by calling c++filt.  Per Bothner's comment regarding (3) still 
holds 
as NameFinder is now called one method at a time.

The file notes that the lookup method is not thread-safe because of interactions with external processes, which may give an additional incentive to 
eliminate the external program.

This shouldn't be that hard to do, actually, since the native method mentioned by Per obviously goes into natNameFinder.cc in an obvious place.
