Rails - Jul 2007 - Problem with discovering available controllers through reflection

This code works under webrick to load and identify every controller in a rails 
app.  However, it fails under mongrel.  Instead it only identifies the 
controller that actually called the method.

Does anyone understand why?

Thanks in advance,

code snip:

  def MyModel.synchronize_with_controllers
    # Load all the controller files
    Find.find( RAILS_ROOT + ''/app/controllers'' ) do
|file_name|
    
      if /_controller.rb$/ =~ file_name
        if (@@debuglevel >= 4)
          p "Loading "+file_name
        end
        begin
          load file_name 
        rescue
          logger.error("Unable to load file #{file_name}")
        end;
      end
    end

    all_controllers = ObjectSpace.subclasses_of( ApplicationController )
    
    if (@@debuglevel >= 4)
      p ''----------------------------''
      p "all_controllers:"
      p all_controllers;
      p ''----------------------------''
    end

I''m afraid I can only give you the unhelpful report that it worked OK
under Mongrel when I ran it.
