Hi,

After creating a new, clean Rails-2.2.2 project and inserting

```
I18n.default_locale = "de"

```

in config/environment.rb, the command

```
script/generate

```

ends with

```
.../config/environment.rb:76: uninitialized constant I18n

```

(NameError)

This is strange since I18n of rails-2.2.2 worked fine for me in  
another project. Just `script/generate` complains.

Hints appreciated!
