    The new version (just released) of CiscoWorks (ver.2.2) includes PIX
    management capability as well as the already established router/VPN
    management.  Its not cheap though.

    Investigate Net Partitioner (http://www.solsoft.com/).
    
    They (disclaimer: ex-we) support PIX and a load of other
    devices. Define your network, tell NP that that device is a PIX,
    that one too, that one a router w/o filters, etc., define your
    policy, compile, upload filters.
    
    Exercise left to reader : PIX catches fire, no replacement PIX,
    replace with other supported device, tell NP (10 seconds),
    recompile (20 seconds), reupload. Compare time necessary to
    rewrite PIX rules, even using sed, for something non-IOS.
    
    Payware (probably lots of $$$ for your config), but gratis
    time-limited demo.
    
    HTH.
