The CVS version does put the c/v characters there.  I do not know why 
you are not getting them for that type.  Do you for other types?  I 
would like to fix this but I need to be able to reproduce it.  If you 
could send me the preprocessed source via private email in a compressed 
file then I can look at it.

This looks like a separate issue.  Please submit this to the bug tracker:

http://www.gccxml.org/Bug

If you can produce it just by including STL headers in a small source 
file, please include it in the submission.

The "._50" is a name generated by GCC for some internal variable.  It is 
safe to ignore these.

One way to cleanup/shorten the output is to use the "-fxml-start" 
option.  You can name any declaration and the dump will include only 
that and anything it references directly or indirectly (the subgraph of 
references if walked).  The default start declaration is the global 
namespace so everything is dumped.  See "gccxml --help" for how to use 
the option.
