As opposed to executing system calls -for requesting kernel services, rump programs do a library call into the kernel -code for equivalent functionality. Kernel code is simply recompiled as a -userspace shared library from the kernel sources instead of being rewritten, -so services imitate the same services being provided by the kernel.
