FYI, I got my code working and it is in the latest release of
posix_ipc:

The function MessageQueue_request_notification() does some necessary
setup and the function process_notification() does the rest of the
work.
Let me guess. You either forgot to start Python's threading system or
you didn't register you thread with Python. You need to deal with
PyThread_init_thread(), PyEval_InitThreads(), PyThreadState_New(),
PyThreadState_Clear() and PyThreadState_DeleteCurrent(). The module
Modules/threadmodule.c contains some examples.
Yes, that's accurate except for the word "forgot". To forget something
one must first know it. =) I found the threading API documentation
difficult to follow, but I suppose that what I'm doing is a little
unusual so if it is not well-documented territory, that's what I get
for wandering off the map.
