Hey everyone, I maintain devel/doxygen (sorry I didn't add my 2 cents earlier, 
I've been a bit busy) and was looking at this particular thread.  I know someone 
filed a PR regarding the circular dependency, stating that it might be best to 
split apart doxygen so one port builds just the program and another port build 
just the documentation.  I am not sure if that is the best thing to do or not. 
I've been wanting to push out an update to doxygen but this has been a stopping 
block for me.
