Are there pointers for doing that?
Looks like:
http://gnuradio.org/redmine/projects/gnuradio/wiki/BlocksCodingGuide
?
Is there a "golden" reference to look at? (I assume
gr-howto-write-a-block-3.6.0.tar.gz
should have everything we need?)

Yeah, that's what I was missing. If it supports Comedi - it should support IIO
without many issues.
SLOC Directory SLOC-by-Language (Sorted)
387 gr-comedi cpp=376,python=11
If that's all that's necessary - it shouldn't take much time at all...

Close - although it appears we need to extend our FSF copyright assignments
before we get too busy.
