Sorry, the kernel kludges are not available.

You might want to have a look around for implementations already available
which do this.  I'm pretty sure this has been done by a few people already,

There is a standard NetBSD kernel build option that I added a long
time ago to let non-privileged processes bind low numbered ports.
