I often write code like this and would be very keen on a nice generic
library.
e.g. I have a decoding/encoding module for a sexp-like binary format
at http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/erlext.el - it's not generalised
and takes a different approach, but it's the same sort of code.
On a similar note, I've recently written a small framework for network
state machines in order non-blockingly support non-trivial protocols,
with trace/debug convenience and so on. A work in progress that uses
it is at http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/distel.tar.gz if you're
interested. net-fsm.el is the state machine code, also downloadable by
itself at http://www.bluetail.com/~luke/misc/net-fsm.el (it includes
yet another small ad hoc binary encoding API).
Cheers,
Luke
