John Marino 04d164e21d devel/frama-c: Update version Oxygen => Neon to unbreak and stage
Oxygen is from Sept 2012, and Neon is from Mar 2014.  Stage support was
added along with some minor cleanup.  A major patch from Debian was
required to support OcamlGraph 1.8.5.

It has been broken since Ocaml was updated to 4.01.
Work covered by Staging blanket.

Frama-C is a suite of tools dedicated to the analysis of the source code of
software written in C.
Frama-C gathers several static analysis techniques in a single collaborative
framework, which allows static analyzers to build upon the results already
computed by other analyzers in the framework, and provides sophisticated
tools, such as a slicer and dependency analysis.
Frama-C is closer to heuristic bug-finding tools than it is to software metrics
tools, but it has two important differences with the former: it aims at being
"correct" -- that is, never to remain silent for a location in the source
code where an error can happen at run-time. And it allows its user to
manipulate functional specifications, and to prove that the source code
satisfies these specifications.
