How do you store the state of the interpreters, or does
the "no arbitrary moment savegames" nature of most console
games save you from this?

Resolving the pointers embedded within interpreter stacks
was one of the two major issues we had to resolve for our
custom scripting system - and that we don't want to have to
resolve yet again. On the other hand, our custom scripting
language sucks in more ways than one, and I would be happy
to scrap it and integrate a "real language" instead.

(Latent functions a la UnrealScript being the other
major issue, but Stackless Python seems to be able 
to support that.)
