Re: objdump : inaccurate demangling for foo(char* const)

So, is it inaccuracy or convention?
Convention, I guess.
yes.
both foo1 (char *) and foo2 (char * const) have the same type - top
level cv qualifiers are ignored on parameters. If you called both
'foo' g++ would complain. The ABI's mangling mangles indistinguishable
functions in the same way (notice the return type is not mangled
either).
