It should work as you describe it. Can you just clarify how you are doing this? Are you setting sys.path in the same program you are trying to run? Or is it set in a Python startup script? How do you run a.py? Are you importing it into an existing Python session(with sys.path set or are you ruinning the file standalone? Basically the only thing I can think of is that your setting of sys.path isn't being seen. Can you put a debug print statement to display sys.path just before the import b statement? That way we make absolutely certain Pythoncan see the folder.
