>   Some time during the summer I submitted a patch to add the display
> of arguments to the C/C++ editor when code completion was invoked.
> Somehow I managed to submit a patch which commented out all of the
> hover extension point code at the same time.  This patch, targetted
> at the 1.2 branch but also applicable to head re-enables the hover
> using only the basic extension point.  While we are likely going to
> change the scheme for 2.0, there are products today which use this
> extension point so it should be at least maintained until the 
> replacement is available.
> 
> ChangeLog:
> 
>   Re-activate the hover help based on the function summary extension
>   point. 
>   Fix a bug in the FunctionSummary class which displayed arguments as
>   the return value for functions.
