I have some code demonstrating how to generate sound from raw data using SDL (which is poorly documented in SDL, which is quite odd given the rest of its stellar documentation). I just need to figure out how to manually create different waveforms (saw, square, etc) at different frequencies and volumes. The GB's Audio Processing Unit (APU) is actually well documented by Blargg himself.

Fyi, if you're looking for something simpler to work with, libao is pretty easy to use if you just want raw sound output ala "output sound at frequency X at volume Y".
