Did you ever get this figured out? I am running into the same issue using bundler.

thanks

Not yet. I've been pulled to another project using rails 2.3.5 so I haven't been able to play with rails 3.

My problem was actually somewhat different, but essentially the same error. I was using a gem that was reopening PostgreSQLAdapter without subclassing AbstractAdapter, causing the error. It didn't exist for me before using bundler because the load order was different, so I don't know if this will help you any. Anyway I thought I would share my solution.

It seems to be the same problem. Rails 3 autoloads most things now and database_cleaner opens up the adapters to add a truncate method. I think to fix the problem database_cleaner just needs to require the proper classes first before opening the class. Unfortunately, I haven't had the time to look into it.

I tried the below but it didn't work:

gem 'database_cleaner', :require => false

In spec_helper.rb:

require 'database_cleaner'

I'm not using pg, only mysql.

In the end I reverted to 0.5.0, which works for me.
