I think you're probably going about this the wrong way.  Instead, maybe 
you should investigate using a streams module and pushing the module on 
the physical driver.  (Think of it like a "filter" made up of pipes in a 
stdio stream.)  The STREAMs Programming book has a pertinent example, 
IIRC.  (Though as part of this effort, you'd probably also have to 
decode the DLPI - Data Link Provider Interface.  The DLPI spec is 
readily findable with Google.)
