The short-against-the-box rules are really not so bad. According to the instructions for Schedule D, they don't apply if you close the short position no later than 30 days after the end of the year, hold your long position at least 60 days after closing the short position, and don't take positions which reduce the risk of your long position during that 60 days. This exception is stated on page D-4 of the instructions, under Constructive Sales Treatment for Certain Appreciated Positions.

If you're a glutton for punishment, you can find further details on page 36 of Publication 550.
