If I see a "Guide for setting up X development environment", I'll assume
that the directions given on the guide will make me more productive
while working on X. For the specific case of CEDET/C++ combo, that's far
from assured. Giving a heads-up is appropiate here. Then each individual
can decide if they invest time on the effort.

In any case, thanks to the OP for writing the guide. I skimmed over it
and looks like worth reading even for a veteran Emacs/C++ dev like me.
It already mentions that CEDET is slow, (which I don't think it is the
real problem) but says nothing about its limitations when using the
built-in C++ parser.
