set_new_handler change

It appears that previously set_new_handler needed to be inside an
extern "C" { ... } block. At least the sgml-tools SRPM thinks that
is the case.
However, if I build the sgml-tools SRPM, I get an undefined reference
to set_new_handler. Looking in libgcc.a in the egs-1.1 tree it appears
as if the name is c++ mangled -- which would imply that set_new_handler
should not be placed in extern "C" blocks.
Did we intentionally change this behavior? Just want to make sure I
don't declare this a non-issue if the change was really an accident.
Note this is the last issue with the x86 RedHat build. Now to actually
install all the RPMs and see if I can bootstrap again :-)
