IIRC, that was one of the primary reasons for CAN.  But even if they 
don't have CAN controllers, then SPI, I2C or just plain serial ports 
tied together would do.  Set up your own messaging protocol and then 
have them chat back / forth with themselves to move data.

You'll decide on some software strategy as to what tasklets get put into 
which processor.  Then decide how closely / loosely connected the 
programs within each processor would be in relation to each other (how 
much data actually needs to be shared).
