[Rails-core] [3795] render_component doesn't work with modules?

[Trevor Squires]

Rick,

I'm not sure that changeset is the issue.  As I said before, a  
*leading* slash will give you problems.

If you look at the stack trace (assuming I'm recreating Nathaniel's  
problem correctly) it says the error is thrown in Inflector#constantize.

That bit of code expressly *forbids* leading :: characters in the  
constant name being resolved and you can see it in action in the  
console simply by typing:

"/foo/bar".camelize.constantize

I'm not sure, but I don't recall a leading '/' in a render_component  
call *ever* working for me...

Regards,
Trevor
