I think it should be CONOUT$ (ie you had it right the first time).
The following works with g77 (and the old Intel Fortran ivf compiler)

      open(unit=29,file='CONOUT$')
      write(29,100)
100   format('1Hello, world!')
      end 

The following works in C

#include <fcntl.h>
#include <sys/stat.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main()
{
 int fd= _open ("CONOUT$", _O_RDWR));
  if (fd >= 0)
   _write (fd, "Hello world", sizeof ("Hello world"));   
 return 0;
}
