Yeah, the docs are confusing on this one:
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/docs/reference/orm/sessions.html?highlight=sessionmaker#sqlalchemy.orm.scoped_session
"Parameters: * session_factory – a callable function that produces Session instances, such as sessionmaker() or create_session()."

Also I took a peak at the unittests to see if any of them passed create_session into sessionmaker, and noticed that
test/orm/test_scoping.py uses it.

its not a bug.     this is why the docs illustrate it using sessionmaker().  If there's some doc 
that says "it just takes a callable", we should add verbiage that the 
"configure" process has additional requirements.

Not sure if this is a bug or not, but I am not able to call configure() on a 
ScopedSession that was created with create_session as it's argument.
I can work around this by using sessionmaker instead, but thought I should 
report it as it maybe a bug.

On a side note, I get the same behavior with 0.5.8 and 0.5.6 which leads me to 
believe this isn't a bug.
