I'm not entirely sure what you mean. Obviously, if you can run something
in Jython it isn't "incompatible with the JVM"...
 
If you mean, "How do CPython and Jython differ", see:
http://www.jython.org/docs/differences.html

You can do Python multiple inheritance in Jython, you just can't do multiple 
inheritance of subclasses of Java classes. (For a variety
of reasons that I don't completely agree with.  :-)  /  :-(  ).  Similar behavior
exists with CPython extension classes.
