	# This hack is designed to prevent a thread from implicitly checking out an AR connection by
	# just accessing ActiveRecord::Base.connection. The point of doing this is to ensure that threads
	# don't tie up connections that they are not using, by making sure we're explicit about where we
	# need to use an AR connection.

3.0.x monkeypatch for fixing Invalid Char 500s

	# Fix for a Rails - Ruby 1.9 bug
	# Rails Router, now that it's UTF-8 default, blows up when routing requests
	# with invalid chars in the URL; it should properly return a 400 error
	# Have to monkey-patch the fix in, since it's not scheduled for release until
	# Rails 4.0.
	# Adapted Andrew White (pixeltrix)'s fix at
	# https://github.com/rails/rails/commit/3fc561a1f71edf1c2bae695cafa03909d24a5ca3,
	# but edited to work in 3.0.x.
	# 3.1.x, 3.2.x compatibility unknown
