FYI I wrote a new sandbox project for CPython:

   http://github.com/haypo/pysandbox/

It's currently very specific to CPython: it uses evil tricks to create a read 
only view of the __builtins__ super global dictionary.

It's completly different to the PyPy sandbox: if you escape from the sandbox, 
you get a full access to all Python functions.
