All we're asking for is that C++ namespaces do **nothing** except affect the mangling.

If I do that, the next bug report will be:

  extern (C++, "ab") { void foo(); }
extern (C++, "cd") { void foo(); } // Error, foo() is already declared

  foo(); // which one gets called?

mangle (C++, "ab") { void foo(); }
mangle (C++, "cd") { void foo(); } // Error, foo() is already

That would not require any changes to extern and there would be no sensible argument for trying to define foo twice.
