Simple AU from VST?

I have a 'simple' VST plugin effect I would like to make into an AU. The DSP is not really simple, but the interface is. It consists of a C++ DSP engine with a VST 'wrapper' class around it that uses only the default VST interface. There is no custom GUI. I am wondering if it would be better to write a 'simple' AU wrapper around the engine or to use the Emagic VST porting SDK to put an AU wrapper around the VST wrapper. One key factor is whether or not there is a default user interface for AU's like there is for VST. There was a rather lively discussion here about Carbon vs. Cocoa and the inability to use a Cocoa interface with an AU. I have not done Mac UI programming since the days of the Think class library. I don't know Cocoa or Carbon, but if I need to learn one or the other it is going to be Cocoa. If even a simple AU requires writing a Carbon UI then my question becomes how can I get the Emagic porting SDK? If not, then I guess I should try wading through the AU documentation again. Hopefully the correct version was installed with the latest version of the developer tools.
