That mangled name means the type_info for the type
`private_builtin:typeclass_info(builtin:void)', I think.

It should be generated as a pseudo_type_info rtti_data by
the RTTI code (type_ctor_info.m?),
then converted to MLDS by rtti_to_mlds.m,
then converted to IL by mlds_to_il(asm).m.

One thing to check is that the problem might be related to
whether or not `void' is module qualified with `builtin__'.
