HDB UUCP that comes with AT&T V.3.2 UNIX includes support for TLI, TLIS, and
socket interfaces to TCP/IP connections.  Using existing TLIS (TLI STREAMS 
Based) code, all you need is to set up listener service database to invoke
uucico when a request comes in from a remote TCP/IP host.  This is only useful
if you have another machine with TCP/IP, TLI, and equivalent UUCP.
Porting BSD 4.3 UUCP daemon has already been done several times for different 
incarnations of TCP/IP implementations for system V Unix's.  Unfortunately
none of them are "free" that I know of.
