I am only familliar with Meiko's CSTools software, but this does allow
compilation of programs to run on transputers and Sun hosts and to
all communicate using the same calls. Meiko provide both a transputer
and a Sun version of the appropriate libraries.

The transputer and Sun binaries can then all be run in the same job and
communicate as if they were all transputer programs (apart from the
byte order problems, handled by XDR routines).

I hope this helps.
