yes i have put MiscUtils in the path specifically; i don't remember why at the moment [time passes] so I did some investigation and i found a checkin by another developer that added that to our path back in 2003 so that importing DBPool didn't need a prefix of 'MiscUtils'. Of course shortly after that DBPool.py was moved elsewhere in our code tree to account for some custom modifications, so it didn't matter one way or another, but we use DBUtils now, so this whole problem might be moot for me if i clean up some code. (i don't see any other need for MiscUtils directly in my python path now).
