If I remember correctly, Python allows you to use multiple interpreters
in the same process, but it makes no guarantees as to their correctness
when running.

See this post for further discussion on the issue:
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2004-January/244343.html

You can also search for 'multiple python interpreters single process' in
google without quotes to hear people lament over the (generally broken)
multiple Python interpreter support.
