I've had success with Eden Li's patch here: http://rubyforge.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=15427&group_id=1306&atid=5147. Been using it in several production deploys for about 2 months.
If you're interested (and too lazy to apply the patch yourself) you can take a look at my fork of mongrel that has mongrel_cluster doing rolling restarts here: http://github.com/chuyeow/mongrel/commits/stable_1-1 You need to clone the repos, go into the projects/mongrel_cluster directory, and run a rake task to package the gem.
