Patch retracted, doesn't even survive testsuite. The problem is that we can't simply accept TYPE_DECLs for generating assembler names, because the other frontends except C++ can't deal with that (they use the default set_decl_assembler_name hook). Even conditionalizing on lang_hooks.set_decl_assembler_name == lhd_set_decl_assembler_name doesn't work, because mysteriously for C++ we'll get ICEs in the C++ frontend itself when presented to mangle some TYPE_DECLs (namely when flag_abi_version is set, mangle_decl unconditionally calls make_alias_for, which in turn doesn't work with type_decls). It's all quite messy and a wonder why -g worked somewhat with -flto at all for so long :-( Ciao, Michael.
