The history as I remember it is that Christian tried hard to integrate
the first versions of Stackless with CPython, but was turned town by
python-dev.

On a side note, I also wrote "greenlets", which is a C extension module
for the regular CPython that uses some code from Stackless to provide
coroutines without changing the core.  I have even built an experimental
I/O library for it, which I'm using with some success, and I personally
like the style; but I also know that it's a very subjective matter, so
I'm happy to keep it outside the stdlib.  As far as I gather from
discussing with Christian, he has got a similar point of view.
