Found it!
From <http://www.macwindows.com/Disks2.html>:
----
MacImage: <http://www.macdisk.com/macimgen.htm>
A utility to enable you to create hybrid (HFS/ISO) or pure HFS Macintosh
CD-ROM from a PC. MacImage borrows a long-used technique from emulators and
coprocessor cards by creating a virtual Mac HFS partition in a PC file.
(Emulators and coprocessors use virtual FAT drives in a Mac file.) The
MacImage utility lets you move files between the virtual Mac partition and
Windows directories. When you have all the files you need, you can copy the
HFS partition onto the ISO partition or burn it as a pure HFS CD-ROM. (L &
SD has posted a MacImage tutorial in English and in French.)

According to the info on the MacWindows site, it's 95/98 - No
mention of
NT. Most likely, it *should* work under NT as well, unless direct access is
required.
Cheers!
