Additionally, it's not magnetlinks as such DC++ requires, it's magnetlinks with TTH hashes. eDonkey uses different hashes in their file-links.

So there is absolutely no way to turn an Edonkey link (be it md4 md5 etc..)
into a TTH hash Magnet link? :cry:

Only if you can find the matching TTH for the MD4/MD5 hash. This is usually done by hashing the file, but a less reliable way may be to look it up in a database, like Bitzi.com.
