Python did not use your Stackless dll as the startup
message should read differently.
It should work if you have the dll in your local
folder. Of course, you can take a copy of
c:\windows\system32\python23.dll and place the Stackless
one there. This *must* work, although it is a little
rigorous. It should look alsmost like this:

D:\slpdev\src\2.3\src\PCbuild>python
Python 2.3.3 Stackless 3.0 040119 (#51, Feb 19 2004, 13:53:31) [MSC 
v.1200 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> help("stackless")
...
