   Does there exist a program to demangle names used by C++ ?
   it should accept for example
    __ct__7ostreamFv
   and print
    ostream::ostream()

   If not, is someone writting such a beast ?

There is, in the libiberty directory of gdb-4.7.  It might be a good
thing to include in the 2.4 release of gcc/g++; we'll see.

The next release of gdb will have a demangler that you can build
easily (the stuff in 4.7 has some trouble); in the meantime, apply
these diffs in the libiberty directory to be able to just do

    ../configure __whatever__
    make demangle

and have it generate the program properly.
