Case in point, I was trying to compile KDE's playground/devtools/binspekt, but I'm sure I remember seeing demangle.h being used in other developer tools before. Actually if it was available everywhere we would even use it in kdelibs' kBacktrace...

Ah another place was kdesdk/kmtrace, but nowadays they just copied parts of the header into the .cpp, as a workaround.
