A while back there was a version of ARC (ver 1.1?) posted to comp.os.vms that
could both create and un-arc .arc files.  This version of ARC is ARC compatible
but not PKARC compatible, but would work with PKARC if you use the -otc switch.

If there is sufficient interest, I can post the .obj file somewhere (alas, the
source was not posted) or try and contact the author to get the latest version.
