I don't know of any systematic effort to do this. I try to document
undocumented code as necessary while making related changes, and I would
imagine other developers do the same.

It sounds like a good idea to me. Feel free to submit documentation
patches to the -patches list.
Another area where we could stand to do better is in higher-level
documentation of how the internals of the system work. For example,
something like the Postgres95 Implementation Guide:
http://pluto.iis.nsk.su/postgres95/impl-guide/
but more complete, and up-to-date. There is some documentation in this
vein (such as the README files for specific subsystems), but IMHO we
could do with more.
