Yep. Doing sudo gem update on a MacOS X 10.5.5/Ruby 1.8.6/Gem 1.2.0 
installation produced an error:

Updating rubygems-update
Successfully installed rubygems-update-1.3.0
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (NameError)
    undefined local variable or method `remote_gemspecs' for 
#<Gem::Commands::UpdateCommand:0x52a3b4>


Subsequent gem update --system produced the "nothing to update" message.
Following the suggested workaround updated the system to 1.3.0
Cheers,
