I'm running 1.6.5 as well. I don't see the same problem. I created a file
containing the single line

    require 'nqxml/treeparser'

and on the command line, typed

    ruby foo.rb

I also tried

    ruby -e 'require "nqxml/treeparser"'

and saw no error, and tried requiring nqxml/treeparser from within irb; no
error. What version of NQXML are you using? One way to find out is to type

    ruby -e 'require "nqxml/info"; puts NQXML::Version'
