Subject: Re: Follow up: Problems with ld

Hmmm.  running 'ld --help' spews out a whole bunch of 
stuff on my terminal, and one of the options I see is 
--demangle.  So, adding the option ' -Wl,--demangle' would
pass that through from gcc/g++ on down to ld.

What I don't know is if --demangle will give you the functionallity
you are desiring.
