Somewhere in the myriad of class loaders and syntax modifiers something is passing '0' to CMOP::load_class. It *looks* like this is coming from Devel::Declare (the thing MooseX::Declare uses to sugar up the syntax) getting confused when it parses the Company::CompanyBusinessModel during the dynamic load. Preloading it "fixes" this by making sure that the class is already loaded when it tries to bring it in (bypassing the auto-loading). Things to check would be your version of Devel::Declare, MooseX::Declare, Class::MOP, Moose etc to make sure they are up to date. Then I'd start working on getting the case reproducible *at all* (sounds like you can't get it to break outside of production, I hate bugs like that) and start stepping through and seeing where things go awry. After that I'd try to take whatever I found from stepping through and reducing it to a minimum test case, and present that to #moose or the list here. -Chris
