This is actually the reason I abandoned developing the map file
further. I had started based on the textipa replacements that I knew,
and then I discovered all the additional commands and realized that
they could not be implemented by TECkit along (don't get me wrong,
TECkit maps are very powerful, I've written one to convert
arabtex-like romanization into Persian). After tipa support was added
to xunicode, I just used that instead.

If this "single line" solution is important to you, you could write a
wrapper package that calls xunicode, adding whichever redefinitions
you need.
