I  have reduced the problem down to the following:  whatever method I 
define in the lib directory under active_record_extensions.rb, is not 
being loaded by rails.  This has worked perfectly for me in a large 
Rails 2.1.0 application.  So here is the problem:

RAILS_ROOT/lib/active_record_extensions.rb:

module ActiveRecord

  class Base

    class << self

      def hello
        puts "Hello from active record"
      end

    end

  end

end

I start the server.  I load Rails Console and try to invoke hello method 
on any model class.  I get exactly the same error as shown below on 
Pizza class for example:

brupa...@bcr-d810:~/exp/pizzeria-3$ ruby ./script/console
Loading development environment (Rails 2.1.2)
>> Pizza.hello
NoMethodError: undefined method `hello' for #<Class:0xb784607c>
  from 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1672:in
 
`method_missing_without_paginate'
  from 
/home/bruparel/exp/pizzeria-3/vendor/plugins/will_paginate/lib/will_paginate/finder.rb:170:in
 
`method_missing'
  from (irb):1
>> CrustType.hello
NoMethodError: undefined method `hello' for #<Class:0xb72087dc>
  from 
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activerecord-2.1.2/lib/active_record/base.rb:1672:in
 
`method_missing_without_paginate'
  from 
/home/bruparel/exp/pizzeria-3/vendor/plugins/will_paginate/lib/will_paginate/finder.rb:170:in
 
`method_missing'
  from (irb):2

Does anyone know what is going on?
