Disagree. A docs tool that requires us to change our coding/naming
conventions (as opposed to merely how we mark stuff up in comments
or whatever) is a broken tool. Doubly so if it mandates violation
of the C standards.

We want to be able to document the structs/whatever we have now,
not only after we've done some enormous change to every struct we
have to bring it into line with somebody else's conventions.
