After a brief search I found the following files on the 'net:

I haven't managed to compile it yet using GNU Pascal but maybe you'll
have more luck.

http://ftp.cised.unina.it/pub/electronics/motorola/m68k/z80cnv
http://ftp.cised.unina.it/pub/electronics/motorola/m68k/z80cnvb
http://ftp.cised.unina.it/pub/electronics/motorola/m68k/z80doc
http://ftp.cised.unina.it/pub/electronics/motorola/m68k/z80fnt

According to the doc, this is a Z80 to 68k ASM converter written by
Motorola themselves. The first two files are the Pascal source code
to the utility, the final file is a 68k ASM stub that has to be put on
the front of converted source code in order for it to assemble.
