c++filt is in both binutils and gcc2/egcs. It would be wrong to try to
install both of them, as this would lead to conflicts. Currently, the one
in binutils gets installed, and the one in gcc2/egcs does not. Eventually,
one of the duplicate copies of this program will disppear.
I'm the current binutils maintainer, and I can't really think of a
reason to keep it in binutils rather than gcc.
I will note that it is not entirely gcc specific. It is able to
demangle schemes other than the one that gcc uses: specifically, lucid
and arm (whatever they are). I don't think this is a strong enough
reason to keep it in the binutils.
I'll mention this over on the BFD list. to see if there are any other
opinions.
Ian
