Hi Cyril, Andrea,

more fixes needed:

          ^ missing ':' here leads to "pid – undescribed" in generated doc,
see ./doc/html/developers/api_c_tests.html#macro-tst-process-exit-wait

@Andrea: I wish sphinx doc would warn about "undescribed" and I thought it did
in the past, but I don't see it.

Also we have too many (~ 220x) warnings:
"WARNING: duplicate label description, other instance in ..." it's not usable.
Any hint you could have look on it? If we solve this warning would get useful.

And here we have "undescribed" due not being described:

Parameters:
tid – undescribed
state – undescribed
msec_timeout – undescribed

See ./doc/html/developers/api_c_tests.html#macro-tst-thread-state-wait

Kind regards,
Petr
