You are doing it way more complicated than it need to be.

Just put HTMLgen in <ZOPE>/lib/python/

and then, asuming it is a normal module:

     import HTTMLgen

... etc.

There is no need to call allow_module or anything special to use a 
module in Zope. And you certainly should not install it as a product as 
it does no through the web management.
