   is wrong because if *pp starts out pointing at '\0' (typically as the
   result of an earlier error), it will be incremented to point to the
   start of the next symbol, which might produce strange results, at least
   if you run off the end of the string table.  Instead use

   if (**pp != ';')
   return error_type (pp, objfile);
   ++*pp;

   or

   if (**pp != ';')
   foo = error_type (pp, objfile);

   And in case it isn't obvious, the point of all this hair is so the compiler
   can define new types and new syntaxes, and old versions of the
   debugger will be able to read the new symbol tables.  */

               Well, it's not *absolutely* wrong.  Constructing recursive
               types (trees, linked lists) necessarily entails modifying
               types after creating them.  Constructing any loop structure
               entails side effects.  The Dwarf 2 reader does handle this
               more gracefully (it never constructs more than once
               instance of a type object, so it doesn't have to copy type
               objects wholesale), but it still mutates type objects after
               other folks have references to them.

               Keep in mind that this circularity/mutation issue shows up
               at the source language level, too: C's "incomplete types",
               for example.  So the proper cleanup, I think, would be to
               limit GDB's type smashing to match exactly those required
               by the source language.  So GDB could have a
               "complete_this_type" function, but never create unnecessary
               copies of a type otherwise.  */

	     For stub methods, we need to defer correcting the name
	     until we are ready to unstub the method, because the current
	     name string is used by gdb_mangle_name.  The only stub methods
	     of concern here are GNU v2 operators; other methods have their
	     names correct (see caveat below).

	     For non-stub methods, in GNU v3, we have a complete physname.
	     Therefore we can safely correct the name now.  This primarily
	     affects constructors and destructors, whose name will be
	     __comp_ctor or __comp_dtor instead of Foo or ~Foo.  Cast
	     operators will also have incorrect names; for instance,
	     "operator int" will be named "operator i" (i.e. the type is
	     mangled).

	     For non-stub methods in GNU v2, we have no easy way to
	     know if we have a complete physname or not.  For most
	     methods the result depends on the platform (if CPLUS_MARKER
	     can be `$' or `.', it will use minimal debug information, or
	     otherwise the full physname will be included).

	     Rather than dealing with this, we take a different approach.
	     For v3 mangled names, we can use the full physname; for v2,
	     we use cplus_demangle_opname (which is actually v2 specific),
	     because the only interesting names are all operators - once again
	     barring the caveat below.  Skip this process if any method in the
	     group is a stub, to prevent our fouling up the workings of
	     gdb_mangle_name.

	     The caveat: GCC 2.95.x (and earlier?) put constructors and
	     destructors in the same method group.  We need to split this
	     into two groups, because they should have different names.
	     So for each method group we check whether it contains both
	     routines whose physname appears to be a destructor (the physnames
	     for and destructors are always provided, due to quirks in v2
	     mangling) and routines whose physname does not appear to be a
	     destructor.  If so then we break up the list into two halves.
	     Even if the constructors and destructors aren't in the same group
	     the destructor will still lack the leading tilde, so that also
	     needs to be fixed.

	     So, to summarize what we expect and handle here:

	        Given         Given          Real         Real       Action
	     method name     physname      physname   method name

	     Foo              _._3Foo       _._3Foo      ~Foo       separate and
