If you write the listener in a language that supports threading, then
it could be done relative simple.

client---(TCP)---multi threaded listener---(IPC)---N worker processes

The multi threaded listner has:
- 1 thread that accepts connections and put them in queue
- N handler threads that in a loop take connection from queue
   and does passthrough between client and worker process until
   client is done

Optionally you could add another tread monitoring queue length
and handler thread activity.
