It looks like the documentation is generated from 
phobos/internal/object.d instead of phobos/object.d.
Maybe the ddocs were omitted from object.d because it's parsed for every 
module compiled, and stripping comments is wasted time?
Not that I think that's a good reason (it can't save much), but it's a 
possible reason...
