Essentially, what you want is something like a proxy. Depending on the
application, it could be a demultiplexing proxy, where the proxy makes one
more-or-less permanent connection to the old server, and sends all requests
down that pipe, or it could be a many-to-many proxy, where it takes many
incoming connections, and makes many outgoing connections.
Of course, you'd still be limited by how many copies of the old server you
cared to start up at any time, but it'd be a reasonable stop-gap measure.
