This way you'll get very ugly REBOL code, and you may have trouble
converting most data structures. Also, you will not be able to
optimize later, because the problem is with data structures
design...

You'll end up having to rewrite the code from scratch anyway. So,
I suggest you to get confident with the database code (perhaps
doing some tests in C) and then, after you know WHAT you should do
(and not only how the C code does it), write the REBOL code
directly.
