Divine Bard + Sacred Exorcist dip = Divine Metamagic.

They'll have trouble getting dispel evil or dismissal

Oh, right. ...it'd have to be a Cleric dip then.

thats quite a dip for a 4th level spell.

Yes, it is, so he'll just take 1 level to get Turn Undead that way.

Make it Cloistered Cleric, IMO.

Bardic Knowledge stackage as well as free Knowledge Devotion (Bards get all knowledge skills) and 4 skill points for an average loss of 1 hp? Yes, please.

It always seems like the barrels around here have something in them.

Memory Smith from Dragon 311? adds some pretty good buffs to your list. GMW, Magic Vestment, IIRC. Divine Power is not long term, but still...

Inner beauty (Abyssal handbook I think): usable as either a buff or debuff.10 min/lvl  +4 sacred bonus to dex and cha, or a -4 unnamed penalty to both those stats, long range. Glibness of course, is also choice :)

10 min/level

Freedom of Movement (if you're not getting it from a cleric)
Heroes Feast (same)
Reflective Disguise (negate racism)

just off the top of my head.

http://www.atomicsockmonkey.com/freebies/di/pdq-core.pdf  The smallest, shortest, simplest ruleset of any RPG I've ever seen.  If 3.5 is too complex and you don't like 4.0, try this.  It has very few rules and is just short of freeform.

The other typical approach is War Weaver...when you can drop 4 precast spells on the party as a Move action, duration is less of an issue.
