You should never need to do that.
In Zope 2.7, if you really need to add additional directories
to your Products path, you can set the "products"
directive in etc/zope.conf, multiple times if needed:

# Example:
#
#    products /home/chrism/projects/myproducts

But anyway, based on the original post, it is not a problem
with the path. Zope is reporting import errors when trying to
import one of his Products, and both are in the same Products
directory, so his path is fine. It's got to be a problem with 
his code.
