With Ian's help, I found the reason for the stripping
of qualifiers.

It's not abi::__cxa_demangle which strips the qualifier,
it's the typeid, which conforms to the standard as
expressed in working paper, n3035, which, in
section 5.2.8p4, says typeid returns a type_info object
"representing the cv-unqualified referenced type".

Thanks Ian.
