Meaning can multiple interpreters be run using threads and they won't stomp upon each other. If not is there anyone who can give me an idea of how complex this would be to implement. The ultimate idea would be to allow ruby to be embedded into other multi-threaded applications and have ruby not have to spawn a whole new version of itself every time a thread inside the host application needed some ruby scripts interpreted.
