 	After. It's loaded via 'use' from regular run-time Mason 
components, after the Apache stuff is all forked and set up.

 	Also, another has_many relationship in that same module, does 
work under Mason. It was written before i took over the code, but I 
ensured that exactly the same configuration is set up for both 
relationships in each requisite Class::DBI subclass -- that is, there's 
a corresponding has_a and has_many for each relationship.
