Some time ago I started working on a package which is meant to do this:
http://sourceforge.net/p/octave/code/11522/tree/trunk/octave-forge/extra/generate_latex/
it is not finished yet, so producing a working LaTeX document might still
require some manual
adjustments, but I think it mitght serve as a good starting point.
Notice that texinfo can produce TeX output but not proper LaTeX, so what I did
was to include
the docstrings as text inside a \verbatim environment and manage the indexing
separately.
HTH,
