I'm sorry for noting one more time that Richard already pushed these changes in clang upstream, but they had been just reverted.

Maybe, I should make a PR into Itanium API repository, but I probably need some time to dig into the theory and all the discussions. But yes, even NTTP argument mangling rules are not still merged: https://github.com/itanium-cxx-abi/cxx-abi/pull/140
