How do you intend to use this? I wonder if it would not be better to 
expose a remote proc with existing bindings for a particular purpose 
(e.g. clocks, resets, etc.) rather than a generic connection. The client 
side would have to have specific knowledge as to what functions the 
remote proc provides.
