I want to right the code so that it will work when there is no guarantee that I'll have an entire message before I start decoding it. This means the parser may have have to stop at any random point in time, and then be restarted again when more data is available.

Python 2.2 added generators that likely can handle what you're trying to do. However, python-dev is not the place to get help on this subject; please use comp.lang.python instead.
