There's a package called 'producer', available at

ftp://metalab.unc.edu/pub/Linux/devel/lang/objc/nproducer-1.1.3.tar.gz.

It's fairly old (1986) but it's still a useful concept, I think.  The idea
is to have a preprocessor for C (Objective-C) that helps in porting the
Smalltalk code to C.  Basically, a Smalltalk-type messenger is added op
top of C to facilitate the job of porting the ST code.

You may want to have a look at it, if only for the YACC grammar that it
uses for parsing .st files.

David.
