Namespaced Controllers not building new resource from params (1.6.8)

[jnimety]

works in 1.6.7. When upgrading to 1.6.8 load_and_authorize_resource is not building a resource from params.

class Settings::ControlUsersController < ApplicationController
  load_and_authorize_resource :class => 'User'
  def create
    # @control_user is a User but was not built with params[:control_user]
    respond_to do |format|
      if @control_user.save
        #...
      else
        #...
      end
    end
  end
end

@jnimety: This is a regression in 1.6.8. I've created a fix for it. Can you please use my fork of CanCan and branch "fix-issue-664" and test it out. Here's the link to it: https://github.com/andhapp/cancan/tree/fix-issue-664. If it does fix your issue, I'll create a pull request and get it merged. Thanks.
