require 'ruport/rails' ate my lunch

Description

Requiring 'ruport/rails' in environment.rb results in this error anytime the application loads: 

/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/transaction-simple-1.3.0/lib/transaction/simple.rb:74: warning: already initialized constant Messages
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/transaction-simple-1.3.0/lib/transaction/simple.rb:274: warning: already initialized constant TRANSACTION_SIMPLE_VERSION
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/transaction-simple-1.3.0/lib/transaction/simple.rb:635: warning: already initialized constant TRANSACTION_CHECKPOINT
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/transaction-simple-1.3.0/lib/transaction/simple.rb:636: warning: already initialized constant SKIP_TRANSACTION_VARS

This also causes several of my unit tests (which were passing before) to fail. The failing tests all depend on methods that use transactions. So, I think rubygems is screwing me by reloading the Transaction::Simple gem somewhere inside Ruport, even though Rails has already loaded its own version.

what version of RubyGems?? This is PDF::Writer that does this and it sounds like you might have that old version of gems that tries to load in all your libs at once.

by the way, this dep comes via PDF::Writer, if you want to investigate further
