Can't upgrade from beta.7 to beta.8-10

[ifyify]

After upgrade beta.7 to beta.10 I got the following error.

Error present since beta.8

Uncaught Error: [$injector:modulerr] Failed to instantiate module ng due to:

Hi,
Any chance you can create an example (e.g using http://plnkr.co) ?

[Narretz]

beta.8 includes a breaking change regarding provider registration, see

https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#130-beta8-accidental-haiku-2014-05-09

Maybe that's related?

[ifyify]

Same on beta13.

The core of issue was attempt to register new filter in third party library.

angular.module('ng').filter('tel', function (){});

There are few libraries with behavior like this. It will be great to add init/lock life cycle and say directly that ng module is prohibited for extension.

Please post a repro, it's possible that it's a regression

Nevermind, I can reproduce this with http://plnkr.co/edit/txehajjSSoMV71at9Ygc?p=preview

I'll look into this today

[caitp]

The reason this happens is because now, $providers are always run before config blocks --- however in the case of the ng module, all of the work is actually done in a config block, so this breaks. (This is because of the commit @Narretz is referencing)

This is a breaking change that wasn't mentioned in the changelog, unfortunately.

[caitp]

Anyways, I'll put together a fix for this (but I'm not sure "extending" the ng module was ever really a supported use case)

There are few libraries with behavior like this.

@ifyify I feel like this falls under the category of "probably not the best way to do things." What are the 3rd party libraries that do this? If they are open source and on GitHub, I'd like to file issues against them.
