Sadly, I don't know of any decent workarounds. I ended up rolling a
rails-2.3.5 for EL-5 in the production instances I wanted to use
storedconfigs.  I would love to see a workaround or a patch for either
the activerecord or puppet packages.  I know that either way this can
be fixed will get into EPEL shortly, as it's a very annoying bug that
was introduced with the update from 0.24 to 0.25.
