I've come up with an answer to that question. On _any_ argument
continued onto the next line, we indent it c-basic-offset from the
_first_ argument. This is easy to implement, since it's a minor
variation on c-lineup-arglist. See the following patch for an example
of what that does.

I've hacked up the following patch, which introduces the new Line-Up
function c-lineup-arglist-+. To use it (temporarily) do C-c C-o RET on
the .baz() line, and change the setting for arglist-cont-nonempty from
(c-lineup-gcc-asm-reg c-lineup-arglist)
to
(c-lineup-gcc-asm-reg c-lineup-arglist-+ c-lineup-arglist)
.. Note that c-lineup-arglist-+ is a function which returns nil to mean
"not appropriate here", so it must be in a list, not in the last
position. This is all better explained in the CC Mode manual on page
"c-offsets-alist".
If this patch does what you want, you can then incorporate the new
Line-Up function into your CC Mode style, or however else you set up
your indentation. If you want any help with this, feel free to ask on
this list, or on bug-cc-mode@gnu.org.
Here's the patch. It should apply to either the latest version of
stand-alone CC Mode, or the version in the Emacs master branch. Please
apply the patch, byte compile the changed file (or all of CC Mode), and
make the amendment to your indentation setup noted above. (If you want
any help with any of this, feel free to send me private email). Then
please let us know if this patch does the Right Thing. Thanks!
