ConnectionNotEstablished when using connection on AR::Base abstract subclass

I''m using AR outside of Rails and calling establish_connection on an
ActiveRecord::Base abstract_class subclass (to protect my connection
in case anyone else is using AR).  It was working just fine with AR
3.0.9, but I recently attempted to upgrade to AR 3.2.2.  Now, when I
hit a "nested" query from a has_many, I get a
ActiveRecord::ConnectionNotEstablished.  If I call
establish_connection on ActiveRecord::Base, instead of the DB abstract
subclass, everything works fine.

I''ve stripped out a minimal example below, which should be self-
contained, as well as a snippet that highlights the problem.  Is this
a bug, or does my code need to change to support AR 3.2 (also fails on
3.1).

This is the offending code:

    Employer.all.each do |employer|
      p employer.employees
    end

Self-contained script:

    #!/bin/env ruby

    require ''sqlite3''
    require ''active_record''
    require ''logger''

    ActiveRecord::Base.logger = Logger.new STDOUT

    class DB < ActiveRecord::Base
      self.abstract_class = true
    end
    class Employer < DB
      has_many :employees
    end
    class Employee < DB
    end

    # If establish_connection is instead called on AR::Base, this
works fine.
    DB.establish_connection(:adapter => "sqlite3",
                            :database  => "./db.sqlite")

    DB.connection.create_table(:employers) do |t|
      t.primary_key :id
    end
    DB.connection.create_table(:employees) do |t|
      t.primary_key :id
      t.integer :employer_id
    end

    Employer.create!.employees << Employee.create!

    Employer.all.each do |employer|
      p employer.employees
    end

Output:
