post_event is intended to be called only from within a react member function 
or an entry-, exit- or transition action. The documentation isn't terribly 
clear on this but it does say that calling post_event only pushes the event 
into the queue. That is, post_event does *not* process the event, which is 
why you don't see the expected transition.

I'm wondering whether it wouldn't be *much* easier to simply pack the 
TT_CANMsg into an event and then let the state_machine process that event?
