This is generated from the XML document that lives adjacent to the assembly
containing the code.  For instance, mscorlib is typically located someplace
like C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\mscorlib.dll, so the XML
file is taken from
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\en\mscorlib.xml (assuming
CurrentCulture is English).

The source code for this can be found in DocBuilder.cs
