i guess you used ext_skel to create the base for your extension?

if you did so and have generated function stubs using the prototype
file mechanism you can use ext_skel to generate an XML-template
for your extension

to generate the docs you need a working 'jade' installation
and DocBook modular stylesheets

theese should be part of recent linux distributions (i know for 
sure that SuSE provides what is needed),
for windows there were detailed instructions posted on this list
today or yesterday

as soon as you have succeded in building the manual from scratch
you can copy your new XML file into phpdoc/en/functions, add a 
'&functions.filename;' into manual.xml.in at the approproate 
palce amongst the other '&functions...' entries, rerun configure
and make 

this should accept the file generated by ext_skel without problems

the next step is then to add 'flesh' to your XML doc file
