note from volh
There is < form_for @user do |f| > in /users/new.rhtml
Needed to change that to < form_for :user, :url => users_path do |f| > to work properly

note from matt
Is there a bug tracker/mailing list that we can submit patches to?
eg.
lib/controller_methods

  def begin_open_id_auth
        return if params[:open_id_url].blank?
        @open_id_response = open_id_consumer.begin(params[:open_id_url])
        add_sreg_params!(@open_id_response) if @open_id_response.status == OpenID::SUCCESS
      end

    if params[:open_id_url].blank?
      flash[:notice] = "OpenId was not entered" 
      render :action => :new and return
    end
