Python specific hardware?

I asked about specific hardware for running Python on Stackoverflow and got a really good reply from an engineer who worked on the Linn Rekursiv project. It seems that it was aimed at dynamic languages like smalltalk as Python was not around at the time.

I wonder if it could be repurposed to accelerate Python? (Although I should add that language specific processors for Forth, Lisp, and Rekursiv itself did not catch on).
