One way to do it would be to write your own user defined primitives, and use
MacTCP or a similar beast. The job might be tough. I may have the same needs

ParcPlace mentionned in some earlier issues of their newsletter that they
did some work in cooperation with Stardent but I don't know what's the
current status.
