OK, I see.  FWIW, binutils and libstdc++ have identical libiberty/
source directories, so all the demangling code is shared.  But only
cplus_demangle has the extra options parameter, which Dyninst uses to
set DMGL_ARM for pgCC.

I wasn't going to bother with libiberty, since we obviously have
libstdc++ already, but this option control seems reason enough.
However, the build doesn't recognize that Fedora/RHEL libiberty.a is
PIC, so it falls back to the download method.  I'll see if that can be
fixed up...
