------- Comment #3 from bangerth at dealii dot org 2008-04-26 00:25 ------- By the way, the return code of __cxa_demangle is -2: mangled_name is not a valid name under the C++ ABI mangling rules. as per http://docs.mandragor.org/files/Programming_languages/Cpp/libstdcpp_v3_Source_Documentation/namespaceabi.html
The string that can't be demangled is "3barILZ3bazEE". W. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36046
