[Zope-dev] Product doesn't work in zope 2.7 that was working in 2.6

[Kapil Thangavelu]

this has nothing to do with zope.

the problem is due to the severe monkey patching, use of eval, and other
bad practices in this product.

its monkey patched attributes into zcatalog and in doing so altered the
modules namespace, replacing the id function with a string.

which leads to the error, as zcatalog uses the builtin python function
id to determine the current transaction and manage subtransaction
thresholds for mass indexing.
