Two minor comments, then I think this can go in

First, please add a test to the test suite that makes use of this feature (verifying that function bodies *don't* get parsed)

Second, it doesn't look like SkipFunctionBodies will always get set when code-completion is on, with rather unfortunate performance consequences. For example, here:

 }

it seems that we should either have

	if (CompletionConsumer) SkipFunctionBodies = true;

or, more directly, have CompilerInstance ensure that, when code completion is turned on, SkipFunctionBodies is enabled.

(Also, there's a typo 'CleaupSema' above).
