Well, the first problem is one that I believe is fixed in Zope 2.8.7
itself (it is due to an issue with acquiring values from a
__bobo_traverse__ method, which is what Five uses for traversal).  The
second issue is due both to lacking a traversable declaration for the
Aplication root itself, though even if you had made the root
traversable with Zope 2.86/Five 1.2.4 it probably still would have
failed in the same way due to the NotFound bug.
