Your complaints have been partially answered, Ron.

Platforms where GNU ld is used always got nice C++ names instead of
mangled names.  As of version 2.7.0, so do platforms where "collect" is
used.  However, on platforms where neither collect nor GNU ld is used,
the normal linker spits out the errors directly (e.g. SysVR4, Solaris).
I suppose that on such platforms, the ld link in the gcc passes directory
could be replaced by a script that pipes the error output through c++filt.
