Good point.  So the original mangling _Z3fooPPM2ABFiE, is invalid.
(Though, if types were present for objects, I think my declaration
would be the right one?)

Note that since yesterday's message I've converted the examples to a
table to make it easier to read, and in the process I fixed most of
them.  Most, if not all, of the fixes involved inserting the F...E
delimiters around function types.
