Pete, Maybe you may like to consider this effort. Apart from allowing extra hosts (hundreds of them via boot/module option) it is like a RAM disk. The default RAM allocation is 8 MB which can be overridden by a boot/module option. You can run fdisk on it, make a fs, mount it, etc.
See: http://www.torque.net/sg/sdebug.html
It runs properly on SMP (Eric's didn't) and supports a reasonable number of SCSI commands including READ_16 and WRITE_16. I used the latter 2 commands to test (via sg) that the recently added 16 byte CDBs worked.
BTW I kept scsi_debug.h as most other SCSI adapter drivers have .h and .c components.
