We're using a program called B, from the Case group at Scripps: 
http://www.scripps.edu/case/Biomer/

It's free.

A commercial program that writes almost standard pdb files is PCModel, from 
Serena Software: http://www.serenasoft.com

Academic pricing is offered, and it has the advantage that is has the best 
molecular mechanics forcefield going.
