Two years ago I researched what was out there, and we decided on Btran, a
DOS product that created several target C's, (we chose Microsoft).  It is
really only useful in getting started in the translation job.  Goto's are 
created, and the code is never modular (as you would expect).  The product
is useable and fairly well documented and parameterized.  It was around $500
and performed probably 25% of the actual conversion in the end.  If you have 
a large hunk of code it may save you some time.
