Thanks Glenn, but I already put on some stuff called Rooftop Guard II. It's pretty tough for an underlayment - I know of a couple of cases where it was put on after Hurricane Francis and survived Hurricane Jeanne intact (final roof not on until post-Jeanne).

BTW, I just came back from Home Depot and they finally had someone on the floor who knew something...guess I've answered my own question - the solution is to install gable flashing on 3 sides, regular drip on the low edge, and use a closed cell foam under the Vs at the ends (they sell the foam pre-cut/shaped, but of course don't stock it - gotta special order).
