Does Python run on any RTOS? (ie Phar Lap ETS)?

What is it?

Phar Lap is a subset of the Windows APIs intended to replace DOS 
Extenders with a fully 32 bit pre-emptively multitasked Real Time 
operating system, with networking, filesystem, etc.  More information 
on Phar Lap at www.pharlap.com. It is a commercial RTOS, and it is NOT 
open source, and it is NOT free.

Resources:

Anyone interesting in Scriping in Embedded Systems should consider 
Python. Particularly, if you are working on Phar Lap's realtime ETS 
kernel, you may wish to know that I am also using it. Please contact me 
or check my web url above for more information on issues specific to 
Phar Lap and Python.    A mailing list will be announced here if any 
interest exists.
