react-hot-loader: [v3b1] "Full reload needed" error

I must be fundamentally misunderstanding how this is supposed to work. I have pared down my app to the bare minimum and it is still refusing to reload my component. ~~My best guess is that either react-router or react-redux is breaking the chain of knowledge of how to reload somehow.~~

I have created a repo demonstrating my problem.

https://github.com/erikras/react-hot-loader-problem

Update: I have removed react-router and react-redux from the project and it still happens. My config must be broken.

Any help would be most appreciated. Cheers.

UPDATE 2: I fixed it.

The problem was with my module.hot.accept reloads. I forgot to add .default after the required modules.

Thanks @erikras, you served as my Debug Rubber Duck today 😃

@gaearon was right of course 😁

The fix in my case was related to react-router. Passing routes in as a prop to <Root /> breaks HMR, but importing them directly into Root.js works.

Any idea why? Routing was working as expected in the former version, and I assumed the output either way would be the same.
