In this case, we construct a fake demangled name from the DWARF debug info (the names of enclosing (DW_TAG_)namespaces, and the types for (DW_TAG_)formal_parameters. Of course, in this case, it makes even less sense to parse the resulting string, since we're the ones who constructed it in the first place. However, it may not be sufficient to assume that one can just start with a mangled name, and get everything out that way.

Good points, thanks! Didn't know about the `--dwarf-linkage-names=Abstract` option
