GlobalMapper has been updated in ver 12 to work with tiled services,
but I have not tried WMS-C with it.

MapServer will also work with tiled services from gdal ver 1.7+ see

http://www.gdal.org/frmt_wms.html

Another angle on this is to put MapProxy in front of it which is easy
way to wms a tms source and get both for the price of one?
