<ruby>
def inherited(base)
unless base.abstract_railtie?
base.send(:include, Railtie::Configurable)
subclasses << base
end
end
</ruby>

<ruby>
ABSTRACT_RAILTIES = %w(Rails::Railtie Rails::Plugin Rails::Engine Rails::Application)
...
def abstract_railtie?
ABSTRACT_RAILTIES.include?(name)
end
</ruby>
Because +I18n::Railtie+ isn't in this list, +abstract_railtie?+ returns +false+. Therefore the +Railtie::Configurable+ module is included into this class and the +subclasses+ method is called and +I18n::Railtie+ is added to this new array.
<ruby>
def subclasses
@subclasses ||= []
end
</ruby>
