I would doubt it.  I have not looked closely, but
glancing at http://www.unipress.com/toolkit/cfront.html
it seems to be Unix specific (not even a Linux version!)
and proprietary.  Even if the output C is portable and
easy to link to, the development platform is now limited
to people with CFront.

At least in the open source world, this would be an undue
restriction.

Cheers,
Ben
