irrelevant.
any language that allows polymorphism (i.e same name for a procedure call with different versions used for different argument types) has to do some sort of naming trick to make this possible (since the idea is unknown at assembler or linker level). what makes c++ tricky for linkage is almost entirely just this, which has nothing to do with c++ syntax at all.
