is this a new bug in the sys.path handling? it has not be a problem for me, and i think i am using it as recently as 1.91.6.
also, are you restarting GAE each time you change those files? GAE dev_appserver caches a bunch of stuff. i find that if i am editing any of the web2py core files, modules, or included view files i have to restart dev_appserver so that i can see the changes. This is different then pretty much any other webserver i have run with. cfh
