Running app-doc/mkdoxy (either 1.0.0 or 1.0.0-r1) leads to following perl error:
Can't use 'defined(@array)' (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) at /usr/bin/mkdoxy line 343.

I tried invoking it the following ways:
  * mkdoxy --help
  * mkdoxy -h
  * mkdoxy /tmp/doc makefile
Comment 1 Kent Fredric (IRC: kent\n) (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2018-02-23 07:53:37 UTC
NB: defined(@array) syntax was deprecated with perl 5.16 ( 2012 ) and made into a fatal error with perl 5.22 ( 2015 ).

Patching it *should* be straight forward, but it requires somebody with the time to actually do it and test it :)

Subsequently there's no point in stabilizing this until this is resolved, because at present, no "stable" version in tree can be expected to work at all.

nothing requires this
