Dokka can't find return type function with expression body and omitted return type

[ghost]

If a class exists with functions where an expression body is used and also the return type is omitted, Dokka sometimes is unable to find the return type.

It seems that the return type can't be resolved as soon as generic methods of the kotlin-stdlib are used.

For example for every function class starting with the name broken the return type can't be resolved:

package com.github.porokoro.example

data class Test(var value: String) {
    fun brokenApply(v: String) = apply { value = v }

    fun brokenRun(v: String) = run {
        value = v
        this
    }

    fun brokenLet(v: String) = let {
        it.value = v
        it
    }

    fun brokenGenerics() = listOf("a", "b", "c")

    fun working(v: String) = doSomething()

    fun doSomething(): String = "Hello"
}

This results in warnings about unresolved types during generation and creates <ERROR CLASS> entries in the documentation. I attached a screenshot of the resulting documentation:

How exactly are you invoking Dokka?

Fixed in PR #110

Is this the reason that a ton of the generic methods in the docs of kotlin.collections show up as receiving or returning <ERROR CLASS>?

Not sure, but this issue also resolved in dokka 0.9.10
