That won't work, unless you make *massive* changes to Python. There are many global objects that are shared across interpreters: Py_None, Py_True, PyExc_ValueError, PyInt_Type, and so on. They are just C globals, and there can be only a single one of them. If you think you can fix that, start by changing Python so that Py_None is per-interpreter, then continue with PyBaseObject_Type.
