[Compiler-sig] Producing tokens for a Forth machine?

[Dirk-Ulrich Heise]

Hi list!

I finished the foundation for Forth interpreted
in Python. It can be thought of as a Forth with 
Python objects on the stack, and Python object
semantics hold.

The Forth machine model is the simplest interpreter
i can think of. That's why i want to explore something
like this:

1.) Parse Python
2.) produce Forth definitions / tokens for my Forth
  machine

The Forth can call any Python functionality. 
So, if there was a parser for Python written as a PYthon
module, 2.) could be doable for me. Is there a
suitable module?

[Why would anyone want to do something as crazy
 as this? 1.) It's easy to port the Forth machine to 
 C/C++ later 2.) I think, things like a peephole 
 optimizer or a type inferencer can take advantage
 of the simple Forth code model; maybe helping
 each other.]
