>Description:
We currently don't have any canonical way to output
names of C++ types. E.g. const char * vs.
char const *; more subtleties arise when dealing with
templates.
This is, of course, less important than the fact that
we don't know how to recognize different names
of types as equivalent when doing input, but it's
still unfortunate.
