Though I'm not really plugged into libstdc++-v3 development (I use
snapshots of it in my project, as v2 didn't have thread-safe strings),
it seems to me that you could start with the defaults, and maybe write a
script that converts the comments in the libstdc++ code to javadoc-style
or QT-style comments.  This is discussed here:

If I come up with a decent script to do automated conversion of the code
comments for my project, I'll post it to the list.
