Trying to upgrade to Rails 2.2.2 and all of my assert\_raise tests are  
failing. It appears that my rescue\_action method is being called but  
not reraising the Exception. In Rails 2.1.2 and all the other versions  
I’ve used the exception would be reraised.

I haven’t been able to find any hint as to what to change. I figured  
it has something to do with the new exception handler stuff but  
haven’t had any luck yet.

Any help is appreciated.
