The v3 code is completely separate; it's off in cp-demangle.c rather
than cplus-dem.c (or reversed).  The original demangler just calls the
v3 demangler when necessary, so it doesn't come in to this at all.

I was just hoping someone more familiar than I with the mangling scheme
could look at the existing one and figure out where the shortcoming
is...
