Alternatively, maybe this is a job for an annotation processor. IIRC, we considered that 6 years ago. It might be possible, but consider that you need to diff multiple jdk implementations, and the annotation processor needs to be able to grok javadoc comments. Also, there are no "annotations" being processed, so it's weird to use an annotation processor. Writing a javadoc doclet is another approach that might work.
