[Zope] Odd module import problem for product

I have two sunbox both running os 8,
both running  Zope 2.3.3,
both running python 2.0.1.

The product imports several python modules which in turn are initialized as
objects but only the top-level module is registered.  When you install the
product into a folder it initializes the other objects or products.  One of
the modules cannot be imported on machine 2 but has no problems on machine
1.

If the module or class file being imported had syntax errors would the
syntax errors show in the zope control_panel under the broken product or
would it just simply show the error in the parent product and simply refuse
to acknowledge the module giving an import error?  I know this is ambiquous
but any thoughts on where to start looking as to why it would install on one
identical box, identical code and not on the next?  Could it be ZODB and
Refresh has mangled something?
