All language-specific builtin functions go into the _core_Language namespace. (So for Python it's _core_Python, Perl 5 is _core_Perl5, and so on)
Just as a side question, will these language specific namespaces be available to other languages?
Yes. And, as my addled brain churns on this some more, we had a standard we semi-hashed-out a while back for the proper way to do this with hierarchical namespaces. We can re-hash that in August and nail it down, at which time I'll redo the translator program for python bytecode. (Because, bizarrely, I'd actually like this to morph into something production-worthy. Go figure)
