I think you can accomplish this in essentially the same way with either 
MS DNS or BIND.  Configure www.subdomain.google.com as a zone on the 
server, and create an Address record with the zone's name that resolves 
to the local IP.  This is not any different from how you create an 
Address record for yourdomain.com.
