This is not a palatable solution. As mentioned,
searching the web
reveals that including demangle.h in binutils is not something
that can be presumed. Although some distros have been patched, not
all
have been patched. Trinity has to build against stock
distros and
not kludges.
I've emailed the Slackware maintainer but there is no guarantee a
patched binutils is forthcoming.
Can the original commit be rewritten to not use demangle.h?
Otherwise the only solution is reversing the original commit. I
believe that code was committed primarily as a troubleshooting aid
against bug report 1288. Therefore reversing the patch should not
cause any problems, but do we want to keep that code in GIT
permanently, even after bug report 1288 is resolved?
That commit is the only place in the entire GIT sources requiring a
dependency on demangle.h. The only place the include is required is
tdebase/kdesktop/lock/backtrace_symbols.c.
