I don't doubt that it's possible. That's not meant as any kind of
slight on the CPython implementers, but it's there are always great
benefits to doing something a second time around.
In my dreams we'd have a completely self-hosted Python implementation
that compiles to native code on the fly, sort of like the Yale T system.
