Cool! Thats what wxwidgets is for...
Besides, MFC,ATL,WTL are technologies (cant speak for the last 2 ones though) that soon will be replaced with .NET, so...

WTL was open sourced.  http://sourceforge.net/projects/wtl/

I find this page amusing, though not ironic (since WTL is based on ATL, a Microsoft technology).

Personally, ActiveX (or the COM) has proven to be more of a thorn in the side than a significant benefit in my windows experience.  It has led to the development of monsters like HKLM\Software\Classes ( >_< ).

However, I'm certain you can do more with ATL and WTL than just develop COM-based libraries and programs.
