From the bug report:
This line in Docs.gmk is incorrect, and should be removed.
-tag version \
It incorrectly enables support for the @version tag, which should only
be enabled by the (poorly-named) -version option. (@version and
-version are a similar pair to @author and -author).
A small number of java SE API files contain a very-old @version tag, and
this started showing up in JavaSE docs in JDK 8. You can find these
files by grepping recursively for @version. The change that added this
line is probably a side-effect of adding support for the @apiNote,
@implNote, @implSpec tags.
Note that removing this line will change the Java SE API docs, reverting
the handling of @version back to its original treatment of being ignored
up through and including JDK 7.
