Description Marien Zwart (RETIRED) gentoo-dev

Building libmwaw-0.1.8 with USE=doc with doxygen-1.8.4-r1 resulted in an infinite loop, fixed by upstream commit https://github.com/doxygen/doxygen/commit/5e056236c9ef3b3675d014cab43480700027d60b (thanks to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=974069 for pointing me at it).

After applying the above patch libmwaw built without looping.

Consider applying this, as judging from the example on https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=701295 this is not very difficult to hit ("\retval "Value > 0" - Indicates success.").

@marienz: the patch seems fine, if you have time just revbump with it there. I bet Kacper won't mind as I triggered it even on other packages now when updated to this.

I would do it but I lack time for next 14 days or so.

The patch worked for me.
