Adding touchscreen support to an existing opensource application

Have you heard about Exult?
Exult

It is an opensource, multi-OS engine for running the classic adventure/RPG game Ultima 7. It has been successfully ported to PDAs before and I was wondering whether someone with the proper skillset could make it possible to use it on the iPhone/iTouch?

Basically- accelerometer to control movement and the touchscreen for object manipulation (the game only uses the LMB for that, single click to view an object, double click to use it, drag and drop for moving).

Adding the proper screen resolution is not a problem, the code maintainers will do it.

Alternatively, are there any sources that explain how to add the support for those functions?
