Description Christopher Schwan 2014-06-30 10:22:04 UTC 
Please add support for clang assisted parsing in app-doc/doxygen.

Doxygen offers this feature since 1.8.4[1] which is activated by configuring with `--with-libclang`. If activated, Doxygen recognizes two new configurations options, CLANG_ASSISTED_PARSING and CLANG_OPTIONS, that makes it rely on clang for parsing. This is really helpful for template-heavy C++ projects; without it Doxygen sometimes produces garbage.

I propose to enable it via `USE=clang`.

The patch should do the trick, tested with clang-3.3-r100.
