I did work on such a thing briefly a while back. The project never 
really got anywhere; what I ended up with was a Java toolkit for 
manipulating SCUMM files, a specification for a SCUMM object file format 
allowing incremental compilation (which I called SLOB), and some VM 
documentation. You can find it, such as it is, here:

Good luck with it...
