It does not block and this is the problem.
I have something like this:

AMQP.start do
  log("Creating message queue object")
  amq = MQ.new
  log("...started")
  amq.queue(QUEUES[queue_name]).subscribe { <some processing here> }
end

Everything works ok until I just add require 'mechanize' in the first
line of the file. I do not see "Creating message queue object" message
