This sounds like a good summer project for me to tackle while I'm redoing the rest of the documentation. Phasing out c2man has been a long time coming.

Please switch away from c2man and use something else, for example doxygen.
In http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2003/10/msg00019.html Manoj Srivastava pointed out that, "c2man has been dead upstream for years (which was, so far, not a problem), and does not work with modern C/C++ programs -- which _is_ a problem. The functionality has been superseded with packages like doxygen". He wanted to remove c2man back then (October 2003) but couldn't because some (but few) programs still used it.
I'm now filing wishlist bugs on these three packages. Once you have migrated to doxygen (or something else), I will ask for the removal of c2man.

As far as this bug is concerned, though, Wine already have, and now use its own c2man-like perl script. I just didn't notice when c2man was removed from configure, and never removed the build-dependency from the Debian packages. I can do so at the next upload I do.
