Plenty. First, the Vax C compiler supports this (to a certain
degree). Also, you might look at the GNU C compiler which has
code for parsing Unix file conventions into VMS. I am sure that
there are other places as well, such as code from the DECUS
tape.

P.S. The GNU C compiler can be ftp'd from a number of sites
including prep.ai.mit.edu.
