Just to explain: I think it was me who asked for this, though the change wasn't in generated code, it was in a file in rspec-rails that gets run when you require 'spec/rails'. We use a 'features' environment for running our features (so we can run them in parallel with specs) and it was causing some weird behaviour as the constant was changing under our feet as the features
(which use some rspec-rails matchers) were run.

What was the code doing to make the rspec-rails matchers available?

require 'spec/rails'

There's no reason you'd need to load 'spec/spec_helper.rb' to do that.

Maybe I'm getting two things mixed up, but I thought the change we were talking about here was this commit: http://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec-rails/commit/d6af98c1ffd992d81723fba70f5da9fbbb9e0a58

I didn't realise that the generated spec/spec_helper.rb file was also going something similar.
