The docs on ruby-doc.org are taken from the CVS head. The documentation 
for net/http (which I believe I was the last person to update) reflects 
the version of net/http in CVS at the time, which is the version that 
became part of the Ruby 1.8.4 release.

So the docs are (probably)(*) right, you just need to either use a more 
recent Ruby, or use an older version of the docs.
