I wanted to do just this so I considered adding a predefined

the line numbers would pretty quickly lose sync between master

the release tag into the documentation somehow so I gave up on
that idea.
So... don't link to master?
The dmd repo has a VERSION file. Can that be used to link to
the respective tag instead?
I'm not sure how ddox works but I suspect that wouldn't be
terrible difficult to integrate. Doing it with ddoc would require
something like copying the value from VERSION into a macro within
std.ddoc using the html make target. Not terribly difficult but
now that we are switching to ddox we might as well do it using
ddox where line information is already easily accessible.
