See http://www.jython.org/ for an open source java implementation of
Python. Jython is freely available for both commercial and non-commercial
use and is distributed with source code. One of the features is dynamic 
compilation to Java bytecodes - so it should be possible to build 
a Squeak-Python compiling ST bytecodes for the squeak vm.
