Subject: Re: Superclass mismatches

Thanks for the explanation.  I'm still stumped - it seems like I have
two classes with the same name:

irb(main):015:0> ResellerCategory
=> Taxonomy::ResellerCategory
irb(main):016:0> ResellerCategory.superclass
=> Taxonomy::Category
irb(main):017:0> ResellerCategory.superclass == Taxonomy::Category
=> false

Huh?

irb(main):018:0> ResellerCategory.superclass.object_id
=> 46413760
irb(main):019:0> Taxonomy::Category.object_id
=> 47673490

How did that happen?

irb(main):020:0> module Taxonomy; class ResellerCategory < Category;
end ; end
TypeError: superclass mismatch for class ResellerCategory
irb(main):023:0> module Taxonomy; class ResellerCategory <
ResellerCategory.superclass; end ; end
=> nil

My questions are:
1) How did that happen?  It seems like 1 != 1
2) More importantly, how can I stop this error from happening?  (It's
caused when the file defining ResellerCategory is loaded a second time)
