I just want to point out, that the astyle maintainer also has the ownership of doxygen. The doxygen version does not work correctly on text mounts and Ryunosuke confirmed me this lastly (after some private email conversation 1 year ago), but he neither build a version with corrected open modes nor did he update doxygen to the current version 1.3.x (where x is meanwhile 3). So I suppose that doxygen is abandonned too.

Jörg
