gtk-doc now ships a CMake module upstream:
<https://git.gnome.org/browse/gtk-doc/tree/cmake>.

I adapted this from existing code in the Firtree project:
<https://github.com/rjw57/firtree/tree/master/cmake/Modules>

It would be nice if Evo and WebKitGTK+ could switch to using that. It
may need some improvements; I used it successfully in a couple of
projects (proprietary ones, sadly) but I don't know how much use it
has had elsewhere.
