----------------
This seems like a suboptimal mangling; a no-prototype function type is not compatible with a varargs function type, and in particular may have a different calling convention across a C/C++ ABI boundary. How about instead mangling this as the absence of any parameter types? (That is, drop the `z`, and mangle your testcase below as just `_Z1fPFvzE`.) libc++abi already demangles that as desired (but libstdc++ considers it an invalid mangled name).
