        <pre>This bug is from the discussion at <a href="https://reviews.llvm.org/D44996">https://reviews.llvm.org/D44996</a> .

Currently, clang-format parses the r_paren in an ObjC method return type as
TT_CastRParen:

===
% echo "-(void)foo;" | ./bin/clang-format -debug -
Language: Objective-C
----
Line(0, FSC=0): minus[T=68, OC=0] l_paren[T=68, OC=1] void[T=68, OC=2]
r_paren[T=68, OC=6] identifier[T=68, OC=7] semi[T=68, OC=10]
Line(0, FSC=0): eof[T=68, OC=0]
Run 0...
AnnotatedTokens(L=0):

 M=0 C=1 T=TrailingAnnotation S=0 B=0 BK=0 P=120 Name=identifier L=11
 PPK=2 FakeLParens= FakeRParens=0 Text='foo'

This seems unintentional; @djasper and I agreed we should revisit this.

There is at least one place which relies on TT_CastRParen being an indicator of
an ObjC method return type:

<a href="https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/blob/e37a191e99773959118155304ec2ed0bc0d591c2/lib/Format/TokenAnnotator.cpp#L394">https://github.com/llvm-mirror/clang/blob/e37a191e99773959118155304ec2ed0bc0d591c2/lib/Format/TokenAnnotator.cpp#L394</a>

so we will need to fix this carefully.</pre>
