string file     The file where the error occurred. Defaults to _FILE__.

Note the "_FILE__" instead of "__FILE__". This is because ddoc has a special
feature allowing you to avoid highlighting symbols in the output, e.g.:

-----
/// This function foo is named _foo
void foo() { }
-----

This will highlight the first foo word but not the second.

However, for __FILE__ and other built-in symbols beginning with an underscore
ddoc should probably avoid interpreting the leading underscore as an attempt to
de-emphasize the symbol, and instead just output these symbols as-is.
