This has happened to me, when I uninstalled a product by removing the Python
files. Then suddenly all hell broke loose when I tried to restart the
server.

I then reinstalled the product, and removed all instance of it on the site.
Then I could remove the Python files and restart nicely.

There really ought to be a "remove product" option in the controll panel,
that recursively removed all instances in the zope hierachy, and then moved
the python files to an "Uninstalled" directory. I cannot imagine that it
would be difficult.
