It should be easier for you to just use g_idle_add(), this will queue
an idle function to be run in the default GMainContext (i.e. the main thread),
with a possible user data.
You can also push an idle function or timeout to run in any thread that runs
a main loop (for a thread to run a mainloop it must also declare
its own GMainContext).
there is also g_main_context_wakeup() you may find useful.
