This commit causes log entries for sql statements to be in base64 on Ruby 1.8.7.

This causes breakage: http://intertwingly.net/projects/AWDwR3/checkdepot.html

This breaks the vendor/rails case, as such environments also require rubygems.

I'll suggest http://pastie.org/661001 as means to address this.

Ticket 3387

This change causes decimal objects to be treated as strings, leading to errors in existing applications such as "comparison of String with Float failed" in validation routines such as a the following:

def price_must_be_at_least_a_cent
  errors.add(:price, 'should be at least 0.01') if price.nil? || price < 0.00
end

Full scenario and captured output here:

This commit causes functional tests to fail. Specifically, if you generate scaffolding for a product, any reference to the fixture for products, e.g. products(:one), will produce the following

NoMethodError: You have a nil object when you didn't expect it!
You might have expected an instance of ActiveRecord::Base.
The error occurred while evaluating nil.[]

Suggestion:

Creating a project and attempting to generate a scaffold results in:

.../activesupport/lib/active_support/deprecation/behaviors.rb:27: private method `warn' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)
