I've written a few variants of what I call a "CDR MUX" -- a little application 
that reads CDRs from a legacy system via serial port, reads CDRs from 
Asterisk, combines them and outputs them in a specific format out another 
serial port for some third-party billing system.

Essentially that's what you're asking for, minus the legacy system part.  I 
imagine the billing system isn't interested in a straight "tail -f 
> /dev/ttyS1" output, so some level of translation would be required.
