Hmmm, I doubt there was ever '()' at the end.  I would expect to see
`(C::CClass const&)' at the end.

Note that the old V3 demangler ignored DMGL_PARAMS--it effectively
assumed that DMGL_PARAMS was always passed, so your code used to
always get the parameter types.  Now you have a choice.  It is
slightly more efficient to demangle strings without passing
DMGL_PARAMS, but of course then you don't get any information on
parameter types.

I don't know which you actually want.  If you want the parameter
types, you need to pass DMGL_PARAMS.
