Nope, not at all. They use the CPython C-API internally, so in order to
port them, you'll have to reimplement that first. That's a huge amount of
work, as proven by the incompleteness of all other Python implementations
in that regard. If you think you can do better here then IronPython or
PyPy, please go ahead.
