Did you upgrade rdoc-data and reinstall it as well? The earlier
documentation sets had bugs, 2.5.3 is the latest.

Sure did. Tried it again to be sure:

$ sudo gem install rdoc-data
To install ri data for RDoc 2.5+ run:

rdoc-data

Successfully installed rdoc-data-2.5.3
1 gem installed
Installing ri documentation for rdoc-data-2.5.3…
Installing RDoc documentation for rdoc-data-2.5.3…
$ sudo rdoc-data --install

I get the same result.
