You'd have to make sure that every declaration in the file is stubbed.
Probably the best way would be to do this:

describe User, "declarations" do
  before(:each) do
    User.stub!(:attr_accessible)
    User.stub!(:validates_presence_of)
  end

  it "should assign attrs accessible" do
    User.should_receive(:attr_accessible).with(:username, :first_name,
:last_name, :etc)
    load "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/user.rb"
  end

  it "should validate presence of password" do
    User.should_receive(:attr_accessible).with(:username, :first_name,
:last_name, :etc)
    load "#{RAILS_ROOT}/app/models/user.rb"
  end
end

Kind of hideous, but it should work.
