iirc, you can run GRE tunnels to route multicast traffic over standard
network connections (that don't have  multicast routing support), OSPF is
not as necessary quite yet, but it can be used. the problem is not in
support, it's in protocols and applications, the most routing so far will
do, is to route from AP to AP.
it's an idea though...

ask the routing workgroup for practicals and working examples of how to set
it up, or how it would/wouldn't work.
