Comment(by arma):

 Hey, another (bad but not horrible) option is to for Tor to grow a new
 "redirect" conn type, which it opens when it starts, and which funnels
 bytes from incoming conns to the specified destination port, maybe using
 our 'linked conns' notion. That would be sort of like running the iptables
 rule, but more portable and less scary for novice operators.
