What about Pippy?  

  http://www.endeavors.com/pippy/

Would that fit on a uC system?  I don't know uC constraints, but it
seems if they can put a JavaVM on an RCX system (leJos), Python should
be able to fit there as well.  The whole point of Pippy was to create a
Python VM that would work on embedded systems.  So why not a a Pippy
robot?
