I've had some experience with automatic conversion. Yes, a well-written
converter can get you "acceptable" code in that the generated code is 90%
likely to compile and reproduce the expected behavior. Other than that, the
code resulting from automatic conversions is usually atrocious.
Automatically converted code is frequently used as a starting point, with
some significant clean up effort later.
