Unfortunately, it's not possible to have a single
interpreter. For example, more than one document can
be opened and each of them can have an interpreter
instance. Every other Python library tested works
properly with multiple interpreters. 'pygtk' module
doesn't complain, only 'gtk' one does. If the issue
comes from the gtk extension modules being initialized
multiple times, I'll add a bug to the tracker.

 Cheers,
