    CMake: Fix some special cases regarding generation of docs
    
    Ignore error if docs are not generated using a git working tree, for
      instance from a downloaded tarball or zip file. This is only a
      temporary solution for issue #499 (see "FIXME" comment).
    
    Execute doxygen only if it is available. i.e. found by CMake.
