Comment (by simonmar):
Conclusion from offline discussion:
* Probably not easy to make this work, because a lot of stuff would have
to be serialized to be able to run the plugin in the external interpreter
(Core, typechecker state, etc.)
* We should document the limitation and emit a better error message
* Possibly for the future: run the plugin with the internal interpreter
while using the external interpreter for other things.
