I have not yet generated the HTML locally to test this patch, but will surely do
if that's a requirement.

Keep in mind that this patch is about field/member references. Quoting the
relevant paragraph under "Highlights and cross-references":
``&struct_name->member`` or ``&struct_name.member``
Structure or union member reference. The cross-reference will be to the struct
or union definition, not the member directly.
This lacks the struct tag entirely, and observation shows that links with them
don't highlight correctly (hence this patch) while member links without struct
tag are clickable and have an anchor link to their parent struct.
