The C implementation would still be called CPython, and the new
implementation might be called RPython, or RustyPython, or whatever.
The names are independent of which one is currently blessed as the
reference implementation.

Although if it were called RPython, no doubt a new debate would
flare up over whether the "R" stands for "Rust" or "Reference"...
