Well, using libsieve (http://libsieve.sf.net) it shouldn't be to hard to
make a generic interface that supports exim and sieve filters, maybe you
can't use the whole sieve functionality, but most parts of it.

you could use an header like
# sieve filter
instead of
# exim filter

to declare a file to be processed by sieve.

But why not using exim-filters?
