[IronPython] Integration

[Iivari Mokelainen]

  Thank you!  That asnwered to all of my questions - after loading the 
executing assembly into the python runtime I was able to run "from 
namespace import *" and that did the job.

About the interop: wow that's really good. Never thought DLR team could 
make it that fast.
