Your best bet to keep it trivial would be configure server with multiple addresses and put multiple instances of the server on different IP - one for HTTP/AMF on 80, the second with RTMP on 80.
If you must keep remoting(AMF) and messaging(RTMP) on the same server, the best solution is to run AMF on the top of the RTMP -requires some custom components - you are getting better manageability and QoS, not to mention client RPC and other layers you can build in the communication stack for your application. That is usually reasonably small project and provides extremely robust solution.
