I've had some problems with doxygen document generator while compiling some slackbuilds. I've noticed it on libdvdcss, libmpdclient and a few more. In most cases the compilation process halts (freezes) and the last thing mentioned is doxygen. Each time it creates a new doxygen process which takes up 99-100% of CPU. At some point I noticed there are 3 doxygen processes showing 100% CPU usage. Worse still, I don't seem to be able to kill those processes:
Code:

I've come across another post like that in which the OP used successfully --disable-doc flag.

It may work but I'm not sure if it solves the problem.
Any hints on that?
