I don't have experience with the other, so I can't recommend either over the other. There are open bugs, and it doesn't support non-FIFO mode, but it appears to be satisfactorily functional.

You'll need to create a new SOPC component, which does little more than map wishbone signals to Avalon signals. They're pretty obvious, with the possible exception of WB_ACK, which is equivalent to waitrequest_n.
