[pushed/ob] cplus_demangle_fill_component: Handle DEMANGLE_COMPONENT_RVALUE_REFERENCE (Re: [PATCH] libiberty: Initialize d_printing in all cplus_demangle_* functions.)


[added back gcc-patches, obvious libiberty patch below]

Funny enough, I was going to apply the gdb patch today, but 
gdb meanwhile gained a new make_empty call for
DEMANGLE_COMPONENT_RVALUE_REFERENCE, and making that new code
use fill_comp/cplus_demangle_fill_component too triggered the
sanity check discussed above...  This is just a latent bug
being exposed now.

I've pushed the obvious patch below to both gcc trunk and binutils-gdb master.

Subject: [PATCH] cplus_demangle_fill_component: Handle
 DEMANGLE_COMPONENT_RVALUE_REFERENCE

This patch almost a decade ago:

...
    2007-08-31  Douglas Gregor  <doug.gregor@gmail.com>

        * cp-demangle.c (d_dump): Handle
        DEMANGLE_COMPONENT_RVALUE_REFERENCE.
        (d_make_comp): Ditto.
...

... missed doing the same change to cplus_demangle_fill_component that
was done to d_make_comp.  I.e., teach it to only validate that we're
not passing in a "right" subtree.  GDB has recently (finally) learned
about rvalue references, and a change to make it use
cplus_demangle_fill_component more ran into an assertion because of
this.

(GDB is the only user of cplus_demangle_fill_component in both the gcc
and binutils-gdb trees.)
