With my patch `[980205]: Patch for  wrong mangling (was: Re: [980129]:
bug in COFF's  name mangling?)' submitted   on Mon, 9  Feb 98 12:25:39
+0100 applied I  don't get any  such failures; but  this is  still the
980205 snapshot, I still don't have access to CVS :-(

BTW, did you try the patch?

This is the corresponding part on m88k-motorola-sysv3:
