But this doesn't: python -W'ignore:Not importing directory:ImportWarning'

This is a bug. I've filed bug #1510580 and assigned it to Brett. I think the problem was exposed by the new-style exception change, but the actual bug is in warnings.py; the check for a legal category is wrong.

Also, the magic incantation to silence the warnings would be very helpful here:

Good idea; I'll add it.

You could add the following to your site.py or your .pythonrc.py:

warnings.filterwarnings('ignore', 'Not importing directory', ImportWarning)

--amk
