OK, I think I figured out the problem.

I had the following

module Cucumber
   module Formatters
     class MyFormatter


As soon I as removed it from that module, then it started to work. I
am not seeing different call and steps in the visitor printing ...
maybe a nice simple example of create a formatter would have helped
:)

thanks
