But you aren't making that any worse (except the one inline comment about cstring_is_mangled above, which will need to get fixed) so I don't think you are obligated to solve that problem now.


Can we please accept this as is?  It helps *a lot* - we know the *exact* language whenever we have debug info for an identifier.  I've been able to remove my #if 0's around the filtering code with this patch.  As you say, it doesn't make anything worse, and for many of us makes, things are far better.  Why would you reject it?

The name mangling issue is a whole other beast - it was a flawed assumption from the start (and I complained about it then).  I'm simply trying to make the best with what we have.
