You don't.  You're trying very hard to introduce compatibility problems
into working systems.

If you really, really, REALLY must be lazy, I suggest you get the
source to amd and modify it to provide a vfs-based interafce that is
(a) compatible with more than just Linux and (b) not liable to break
existing programs with unexpected vfs-based semantics for what the
programs think are ordinary filenames.
