I know from experience that Stackless works on darwin-ppc (OS X) and 
linux-x86.  I don't see any reason why Stackless wouldn't work on GC 
(especially because stackless is confirmed working on 32bit PowerPC), 
Xbox (because it's not really different than win32), or PS2 (well, I 
don't believe anything in Stackless is particularly platform 
specific).. if it doesn't work out of the box, it should be trivial to 
port.
