Non-Fatal Anonymous Module Error

I am receiving the following non-fatal error from Rails for a particular action:

I have a feeling it has something to do with this little bit of code:

aggregate_class = Class.new(ActiveWarehouse::Aggregate)

ActiveWarehouse::Aggregate extends from ActiveRecord::Base and instances are created as needed. Is there a proper way for me to construct these classes on the fly without causing this error? Thanks.

Look at the stack trace, try overriding ActiveWarehouse::Aggregate.autoloaded? so it returns false.

Also, please keep questions like this for the Rails list. This list is for discussion on the core framework.
