You're probably right; decltype was officially introduced in C++11 (although I
think it was available in g++ for a while before that, IIRC) so it hadn't
really occurred to me as a serious proposition that it simply wasn't
understood by the doxygen parser. I thought it considerably more likely that I
was doing something stupid.

True. I have my hands full with other projects, both proprietary and
open-source, though.

Good suggestion; thank you.

I've been pondering whether to use the trick you mention, but on balance I
think I'll just leave the code so that it emits the error message, and put a
comment in the code. There are already more unnatural comment structures than
I like, merely for the purpose of appeasing the doxygen parser, so I'm
disinclined to add further pinchbeck commentary.
