You do not necessarily have to do things in place.  In fact, all
of the standard diffcore transformers create a new queue, read
from the old queue and place the filtered or munged result in
the new queue, swap the global queued_diff variable to point at
the new one and discard the old queue.

See diff.c::diffcore_apply_filter() for the simplest example.
