  Hum, docbook has generic FO stylesheets that can certainly be tweaked
(well being subscribed to docbook-apps list, people definitely can configure
stuff using parameters to the FO stylesheets).
Now if you mean an FO to PDF processor, I humbly suggest to print the
XSL (FO) spec to get an idea (have a few cartridge of black ink ready !)
People seems to use db2pdf included in Red Hat 8.0, I think Tim Waugh 
assembled this nice script with whatever tools are available.
