Howabout starting it as a daemon (running as root) via the boot

Cool idea - you could even have multiple hosts connect this way but
export one DECNET endpoint, i.e. run CTERM on Box A whilst FAL goes
to Box B, and MAIL to Box C :)
Yes, you could multiplex/demultiplex it any way you wanted. It would
open up all sorts of interesting configuration possibilities.
... and all this without needing to dick with the kernel?
Sounds like a plan gentlemen, so now all we need is a long suffering
coder type to do all the hard work ;)
I'm already under the gun for a buttload of ARM7 code for work (which
is the only reason I'm still awake at this ungodly hour)...so not me, at
least not yet.
