Writing some custom software designed to more efficiently create work.
To clarify, bitcoind will still serve the purpose of peering with external
nodes and picking out valid transactions to be accepted into blocks; it just
won't be involved in the primary operations of the pool.

Ah, I see. Sounds a bit like the direction Steve is going with poolserverj. So your custom software would handle incrementing the extraNonce, recalculating the merkle tree/root, and so on?
