You would need a mutex protecting the messenger object in order to safely
call pn_messenger_accept from another thread. You can do it, but it would
likely run into complications since the messenger thread would need to hold
the mutex while blocking.

I'm guessing if you are processing messages in a different thread then you
must have some thread-safe strategy for passing message data from the
messenger thread over to the processing thread, i.e. a thread safe queue of
messages to be processed. I would think the simplest thing to do would be
to simply set up another such queue in the reverse direction to pass
trackers from the processing thread back to the messenger thread and call
pn_messenger_accept from there.
