C++ demangler is in libcxxabi (and a copy is kept in LLVM itself).

LLDB includes a “fast” demangler and falls back to the libcxxabi one when the “fast” one fails.

David Majnemer mentioned he was interested in rewriting a demangler functionality in LLVM, I don’t know the scope though (could it have a common infrastructure for multiple language/scheme?).
