More precisely, it says "no protocol: /path/to/output/file".

Your problem comes from the fact that %0 is a file name. %0 should be an
URL. (On Unix a file name looks like an URL, not on Windows).
I can reproduce your problem if I modify
XXE_install_dir/config/docbook/xslMenu.incl for example.
The problem occurs with this modified macro:
---
<command name="docb.convertToPS">
<macro>
<sequence>
<command name="selectFile" parameter="saveFile" />
<command name="docb.toPS" parameter='"%0" "%1" "%2" "%_"' />
</sequence>
</macro>
</command>
---
not with the original one (parameter="saveFileURL" instead of
parameter="saveFile"):
---
<command name="docb.convertToPS">
<macro>
<sequence>
<command name="selectFile" parameter="saveFileURL" />
<command name="docb.toPS" parameter='"%0" "%1" "%2" "%_"' />
</sequence>
</macro>
</command>
---
I understand that your users may prefer the look and feel of the
standard file chooser, but here passing an URL to the macro is really
mandatory. Therefore you really need to use XXE's URL chooser.
