Rails - Aug 2006 - self.abstract_class = true doesn't work for MySQL?!?

Rails 1.1.6
MySQL 5.0.18

I created a model with self.abstract_class = true and when I call new on 
it, I get an error about the appropriate table not being found in MySQL.

Is this a bug or is there some other configuration that I''m not aware 
of?

Thanks,
Wes

Model:

class PrequalificationForm < ActiveRecord::Base
  self.abstract_class = true

  attr_accessor :certify
end

Error:

C:\eclipse\workspace\OnlineRating>ruby script/console
