You've quoted the wrong part of the paragraph. The real problem
he encountered was not the doc, it was the phobos bugs in the
older version shipped with GDC/LDC:
"For GDC, which I used to compile my code due to LDC having bugs
at that time, this means that it is shipping with a very outdated
copy of Phobos"
The the doc thing is "just" a symptom. Older offline doc is
always available in the release archive, it's easy to understand
that so it's not the actual problem.
