I *think* the names will remain stable for the forseeable future, as any
change would probably break DLL interactions in god-knows-how-many
applications and DLLs.  Also, there is an API, UnDecorateSymbolName, which
turns mangled names into human-readable names (provided the human in
question speaks C++), and it's been around since Win95.  

I was able to build and use tri-collider without those functions, though.  
It's been so long since I built it that I'm not sure how I did it, though.  
That wiki site is a great idea.
