Hi there
CDXtract by Bernard Chavonnet works great. You search the giga files in the CDXtract 
program window and select "save program" (bottom right) and it will give you options 
as to what kind of sampler program you want to transform it into, and where (the 
"Sampler Instruments" folder in Logic). Very easy. You can even combine several 
programs into one exs24 programs if you want ("Merge" function).

Hope it's useful

If you put the .gig files in the Sampler Instruments folder inside 
the Logic application folder, they'll automatically become available 
as if they were plain EXS instruments.  If you then pick a .gig 
instrument in the EXS, the EXS will start the conversion by itself. 
No absolute need for a 3rd party application.
