Oh, I've read it all right.

The spec is hardly the best-written document imaginable.  But
if work through the grammar you'll see that _Z <type> is not a legal
production.  The section on the NTBS associated with <typeinfo> isn't
very clear.

I see, however, that at some point the demangler inteface got updated
to just what Phil suggested.  So, Phil, your original patch is fine;
go ahead and check it in on the mainline.
