[DOC-SIG] gendoc/HTMLgen & extension modules...

Well gendoc (when using import mode -i) derives most of it's info from
the doc strings. So if the C extension has doc strings exported it
should be transparent, (or if it isn't now it could be made so). If you
are referring to C source comment annotation as the info source then
that would require the use of some other tool (parsers for which I'm
sure exist already). Although I would discourage that in favor of
standard use of doc strings.

I'll consider this a requirement upon Gendoc - TNG.
