The script needs to know what namespace to look in. To tell it to look
up build_adn in the calling context (the folder or object from which
you called the script), do this:

  return context.build_adn(zone)

The available namespaces (context, container, script,
traverse_subpath) are described in the Zope Book. Go to the chapter on
"Advanced Zope Scripts", section "Using Python-based Scripts", item
"Binding Variables".
