This is defined in the C++ standard library.  You can get the demangled 
name like so:
$ c++filt _ZStlsISt11char_traitsIcEERSt13basic_ostreamIcT_ES5_PKc
std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> >& std::operator<< 
<std::char_traits<char> >(std::basic_ostream<char, std::char_traits<char> 
>&, char const*)

It comes with llvm-gcc4 in libstdc++.  You'll need to compile it to 
bytecode by modifying the makefile though.
