If registry_rebuild() does not produce the results you're looking for (meaning classes are not being found), you can try to truncate table registry_file;. This will cause Drupal to rescan ALL files, resulting in a longer rebuild time, but assuring that all files are re-scanned, including those it thinks have not changed. Be careful though and make sure you have a database backup before going around truncating tables...

How much time does this take on average to run? Am considering calling this as a plan E for an issue with tokens not being replaced we are having and am trying to figure out the performance impact that would have.
