A very thin tipped 2 oz hypo oiler.  Put a very small amount of thin CA
into it so that the application is easier to control.  Apply to the non
string side of the bridge pin and let it wick into the cracks.  Blot the
excess up with a paper towel or a piece of newspaper if needed.  I don't
usually take the strings off.

While I agree that tapping seems to provide a temporary fix.  I think
you would be better off securing the bridge pin by the use of thin CA
glue wicked into the base of the pin to secure it and keep it from
oscillating.  

Hi, David---do you have a protocol to do that without removing strings,
on-site?

That would be groovy.....
