   Yes, there exists such a thing.  I believe it's called
   ZetaC.  Try asking Scott Burson <Gyro@Reasoning.Com> about
   it.  He wrote it.  I believe that it is good enough that
   you can compile the whole of YAK and run it on a LispM


Except for spelling, Rice is right.  Scott Layson's ZETA-C runs YACC
(Yet Another Compiler Compiler) just fine.  In fact, after the initial
bootstrap, Scott developed ZETA-C entirely on the LispM using YACC at
first, then Bison.  It is *very* well integrated with the Lisp
environment.  As for C++, you would have to be satisfied with a
pre-processor implementation, nothing as pretty as having C++ objects
map onto Flavors or CLOS objects.  Let me know how it goes.
