I guess the following:

  * More than one ruby is installed in your system.
  * Old RubyCocoa is installed for some ruby(s).
  * the 'ruby' command is related with the old RubyCocoa.

So, the 'ruby' command is related with old RubyCocoaa installed
previously instead of new one.  If you show the following
information, someone can maybe help you.

  $ which ruby
  $ ruby -e 'p $:'
  $ ruby --version
  $ grep -n 'require' /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/osx/cocoa.rb

  Launch sample/SimpleApp.app, do 'about SimpleApp...', get ruby
  version.

hmm. This is wrong. In RubyCocoa 0.4, every ruby program of the
framework must be put in the appropriate place in
RubyCocoa.framework. The programs which must be put in the
$LOAD_PATH are only some stubs to load the framework from a
ordinary ruby script.

cheers,
