I've landed patches for libbacktrace and cp-demangle support in LLVM. However, they required some changes (e.g. some files LLVM trunk were modified after the last merge). This means that the next merge to GCC (IIUC it won't happen anytime soon before GCC 4.9 release) will not be clean. Sorry for delay.
