That's a no-brainer, really, since docbook tools need to be present
anyway. "docbook2man" is the tool of choice. All recent Linux
distributions come with docbook.
The converted man pages could be part of CVS (as some other
autogenerated files are) so that users wouldn't be required to have
docbook in order to generate the manual pages.
The benefit would be that the man pages would be ready for PS/PDF/HTML
conversion, and could go into e.g. an appendix of the wine docs.
