Probably not a ton. But technical writers need resumes, too. Some of them might also be programmers. Or interested in transitioning into a programmer-writer. I pointed someone in this direction on an hn thread a few years ago. My educational background is in writing, but occupationally I'm primarily a programmer. I do some work on doc contributions, too. It's a nice way to give something, however small, back to a project I use but am not prepared to contribute code to. I think it can also build naturally to more substantive contributions. People who did not write a system but have to understand it well enough to document it are well situated to ask questions that expose design flaws, write blog posts/tutorials that help you onboard new users, triage issues, help out on any forum/list/chat, and more.
