Did you see my post a few days ago about interthread communication with 
sigx?
The library would solve exactly your problem (and it does indeed put the 
incoming data into a message queue).
cMan could create a signal to which other threads can connect. The 
signal can have any number of parameters (up to sigc's arity).
