Demangling unresolved symbols

One of our users here is using gcc 2.3.3 to build his C++ project. Upon
final link, he gets a message about an unresolved symbol. The symbol
is a mangled name and it's quite difficult to deduce from it the actual
C++ symbol (constructor, operator, etc.)

We have Sun C++, too, but he prefers g++ 2.3.3.
Sun's C++ has a few tools to solve this kind of problem:

  c++filt (1)             - C++ name demangler
  dem (1)                 - demangle a C++ name
  nm++ (1)                - print name list

I've scanned the info for GCC and have not seen anything similar. 
I must be missing something, since usually GNU stuff is one step
ahead...

Any idea? TIA.
