Maybe you like execfile() which would allow you to collect the configuration
files without the need for them to be reachable through the import
mechanism.
pattern = os.path.expanduser("~/.herron/config*.py")
for fn in glob.glob(pattern):
execfile(fn)
# objects in the config*.py files now
# share one namespace.
