Do you know if these remaining problems are listed anywhere? AIUI, certain software (for example mod_python) has been using multiple interpreters for a long while now - admittedly not without issues, but certainly enough to imply that multiple interpreters are at least "possible" - although not perfect. Experience with such software would probably be a great guide to where the issues exist. Maybe a page on the Python Wiki, or a FAQ entry, would be useful here. If only to make things explicit, and clear up some of the FUD around multiple interpreters.
