I use LocalFs and it has no problem.  Which Python extensions do you mean?
Generally speaking, it's the python paths (paths to python modules) that
might get out of whack when you want to use non-Zope Python code with Zope.
Python can find things in the directory tree under its executable - look a
standard Python installation to see where things go, then see if an
equivalent place occurs in the Zope tree.  You can solve this using *.pth
files in the Zope directory where python.exe lives.

If it's a binary that's not being found, you can also add its location to
the system path.

I just don't see any of this being involved with LocalFS.
