In that case, I guess it makes sense to standardize it.  At worst, we
are giving a way a little piece of the mangling namespace -- and there
is plenty more of it if we need it for something.

Does anyone object?

If not, Daveed, would you like to send me a patch for the ABI document? 
(Such a patch would presumably note that this mangling is an extension
and its origin.)

Thanks,
