Yes, that's to be expected. The subdirectory Kernel is there with
BaseProblem.py, but you can't import stuff from there like that. Either move the
stuff in Kernel out to scikits/openopt/ where they can be imported like that, or
add Kernel/__init__.py to make it a subpackage and import the modules in it
properly.

Okay. Go ahead and delete them.
