The Python decimal type is new in 2.4.

I don't think you've actually said whether or not you are actually
using a DECIMAL column.

I had forgotten that ZMySQLDA-2.0.9b3 always returns DECIMAL columns
as Python float. If you look in ZMySQLDA/db.py, you can see where it
does this in the DB class. You could try commenting this line out,
which will cause it to be returned as a string, and restarting Zope.
It's something to try, at least.
