you can use product config of zope conf like this

an example for use of productconfig is

http://svn.zope.org/z3c.extfile/trunk/src/z3c/extfile/README.txt?rev=82753&view=auto

http://svn.zope.org/z3c.extfile/trunk/src/z3c/extfile/utility.py?rev=83530&view=markup

if xou generate the zope.conf file with buildout you can also use  
buildout paths
