I would be interested in such an animal, too.  I have some users who
prefer PCs at the Unix site I administer; being able to let them print
to PCL "printers" which are actually just filters sitting in front of
the Apple LaserWriter II/ntx's that we already have on the net would
be a big boon for them.

I tried looking at Poskanzer's pbmplus package, but that only allowed
translating from a portable bitmap (pbm) to PCL.  In case there is no
such thing as a PCL -> Postscript filter or translator, is there an
electronic copy of the latest PCL spec, or does someone have
suggestions for a good book on PCL?  Since pbmplus has its API so well
documented, it wouldn't be hard to hack up a really gross but workable
translator (I would just have the translator image and spit around
giant bitmaps).
