I'm guessing you are using some antique Python version here.
OverflowWarning is a builtin in the versions of Python required by *all*
released versions of Zope3:

$ python
Python 2.4.3 (#2, Oct  6 2006, 07:52:30)
[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> OverflowWarning
<class exceptions.OverflowWarning at 0xb7da2f8c>
>>>
[/home/tseaver]
$ python2.3
Python 2.3.5 (#2, Oct  5 2006, 22:06:14)
[GCC 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> OverflowWarning
<class exceptions.OverflowWarning at 0xb7d71fbc>
>>>


If the FreeBSD port for Zope doesn't mandate a Python >= 2.3.x, it is
severely broken.

BTW, I have no idea what "vulnerability" you are describing here.
