Yeah i saw that in the code. I just could not figure out why files
like:
spec/models/csv/shared_export_examples.rb
end up in the 'bundle exec /usr/bin/ruby1.8 -S /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/
rspec-core-2.4.0/bin/rspec --tty'.... command line along with all the
_spec.rb files.
anohter thing that I don't quite understand is that even if i would
require this file again, why on earth ruby decides to require it if it
already was. For the example above, if I put
puts "-------------\n" + caller.join("\n")
i get two slightly different stacktraces:

btw, just in case you wondered what require_relative means:
require_relative is:
def require_relative(file, requirement)
require File.expand_path(File.join(File.dirname(file),requirement))
end

using:
Rails 3.0.3
bundle list yields (a.o.):
* ZenTest (4.4.2)
* autotest (4.4.6)
* autotest-rails (4.1.0)
* rspec (2.4.0)
* rspec-core (2.4.0)
* rspec-expectations (2.4.0)
* rspec-mocks (2.4.0)
* rspec-rails (2.4.1)

Thanks - i'll try to add an exception for the shared.*examples.rb
files for now, while looking for the root cause these duplicated
requires.
