Thanks, that's good to know.  I would probably have spent hours trying.

That's really what I meant.  On my system those .h files #include the standard 
headers.  It appears I was wrong however.  The rpp doesn't appear to recurse 
through the #includes.  Understandably.  See 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=137644

In a sense it's been there for a long time.  It was buried in details of 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=106379.  That's why I entered the new 
item.

BTW, you mentioned that files that are known to the project would be added to 
the code completion data.  What, exactly, does that mean?  For example, I can 
generate a list of all 378 OSG header files.  How can I tell KDevelop about 
these so that they are added to the code completion data?
