My first thought is that way can't you open a named UNIX pipe and read g-code from it just as you read from a disk file. Then the process that writes to the pipe can get the g-code any way it likes from any remote location. See the man page for "mkfifo" if you've not used named pipes before. It should work with no modifications to MK.
