I've lost track of the application requirements so this may be off base....
Any application run out of /etc/inetd.conf can be configured to serve a
privileged port and run as an unprivileged user. e.g.,

finger stream tcp6 nowait nobody /usr/sbin/in.fingerd
in.fingerd

If this fits it's the simple solution.
