I can confirm this behavior. It's not the fault of the `ns`
macro, however. This works just fine:
user= (ns ^{:doc This is foo} foo)
nil
foo= (in-ns 'user)
#Namespace user
user= (meta (the-ns 'foo))
{:doc This is foo}
AOT-compilation appears to be the culprit (as usual).
Thank you for confirming this, Stuart. Hopefully this will be fixed someday.

As an aside from this, how problematic is AOT compilation? It seems to be
the source of many bugs (for example, my own
CLJ-1227http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1227).
Is there a list anywhere of things to watch out for when AOT compiling?

Example:
user= (meta (find-ns 'clojure.set))
nil
user= (meta (find-ns 'clojure.string))
nil
user= (meta (find-ns 'clojure.core))
{:doc Fundamental library of the Clojure language}
clojure.core is the only namespace that has metadata. Apparently because it
has metadata set differently
