[Python-Dev] ImportWarning flood

I am getting tons of "ImportWarning: Not importing directory". See below for
examples. It is impractical for me to reorganize our directory structure. I'd
be busy for a week or more and people would probably scream at me because all
the paths have changed. Are there other options to get rid of the warnings?

Thanks!
