+Objective-C++ ABI: protocol-qualifier mangling of parameters
+------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Starting with LLVM 3.4, Clang produces a new mangling for parameters whose
+type is a qualified-``id`` (e.g., ``id<Foo>``).  This mangling allows such
+parameters to be differentiated from those with the regular unqualified ``id``
+type.
+
+This was a non-backward compatible mangling change to the ABI.  This change
+allows proper overloading, and also prevents mangling conflicts with template
+parameters of protocol-qualified type.
+
+Query the presence of this new mangling with
+``__has_feature(objc_protocol_qualifier_mangling)``.
