Of the suggestions so far, the frightened man with a bucket needs to be a very fit man - have you ever tried filling a bucket, lifting it up and emptying through the companionway for any length of time ?
Likewise anything requiring alterations to plumbing are impractical, the time spent rigging them up is better spent finding the leak and stuffing a pillow in it. Otherwise you'll be up to your neck by the time it's pumping.
Personally I use the biggest submersible I can fit and a manual bilge pump to use when there's additional crew available.
