I think we can support this - it would be no different than using
IronPython and IronRuby side by side, if we do it right. We'd probably
have to rename IronPython.dll to IronPython3.dll as well, but that's
not a big deal.

How you decide which to use would be up to you, though.

Would this be useful for anyone else as well?
