App uses db sessions

development has progressed over the last months through edge → 1.2RC1  
 → 1.2RC2

today we hooked our vendor directory to  
[http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/tags/rel\_1-2-1](http://dev.rubyonrails.org/svn/rails/tags/rel_1-2-1)

and now we see the same behavior (flash not getting cleared) as
