The first solution that came to mind was DJ Bernstein's ucspi interface, of which
there are implementations for tcp, udp, unix domain sockets, and ipc, but apparently,
not for FIFO's.
In any case, writing an implementation for FIFOs should not be too hard.

I can certainly imagine a way to transform a FIFO based service to a remote machine.

Of course, I'd try to get rid of the FIFO's and bury the network access in the 
interface so
it could work locally...
