(I received the following suggestion by private mail.  Thanks, Matt.  - Julian.)

The first thing that springs to mind here is DocBook XML[0].  There are
stylesheets[1] that can convert the same DocBook XML source files into
TexInfo and man page formats.  The stylesheets at [2] don't have support
for TexInfo, though they do support outputting man pages.  I've not used
the man page specific stylesheets, but have had great success in
generating HTML and PDF using the docbook-xsl package.

Regards,

Matt Burgess
