Does anyone know if there exists support for the port-style IPC of
Mach in other OSs, particularly BSD variants and the such?

I would like to communicate with several processes remotely from a 
Mach machine and be unconcerned about the server OS, as long as it 
supports port-based IPC. (And vice-versa)

Am I limited to Mach? 
Any experience with this?

Your experience is much appreciated,
