is there any way to share a cursor between sessions?

I have a costly query whose records need to be visited by in order by n
number of concurrent sessions, and am unable to find the best way of
doing this.

I'd almost like to write a daemon that hands out the next record, but
that's a royal pain to set up and maintain.

Why not pump your data into a table that mirrors the cursor and then create
a function that pops items off the top of this queuing table as needed by
the different sessions?
