I've also been getting very confused with specs failing with rake:spec but
passing when running focused examples (e.g.from textmate). This is without
fixtures but using mocks. It's as if the mocks were somehow remembering the
should_receive declarations between specs. They didn't seem to get updated.
Turned out I made a mistake a using partial mocks namely trying to set
should_receive on the real object instead of the mock. This mistakes
somehow only became apparent when running with rake:spec.
I'm using flexmock 0.8, rspec plugin 1.08 with rails 1.2.6
I'm pretty sure I still get some failures in a rake:spec but not in
isolation, I'll post examples when I run into them again

P.s. I had to read this bit a few times before understanding partial mocking
with flexmock:
"If you you give flexmock a real object in the argument list, it will treat
that real object as a base for a partial mock object. The return value m may
be used to set expectations. The real_object should be used in the reference
portion of the test."
