class-name matching problem with rdoc

[Joel VanderWerf]

After doing 'rdoc --ri' on the FXRuby tree (which mostly went well), I
noticed one problem with a pair of nested classes one of whose names is
an initial segment of the other. It can be easily reproduced:

$ cat rdoc-test.rb
module M
class Foo; end
class FooBar; end
end
$ rdoc --ri

rdoc-test.rb: mcc
Generating RI...
$ ri -T M::Foo
More than one class or module matched your request. You can refine
your search by asking for information on one of:

M::Foo, M::FooBar
$ rdoc -v

Thank you Dave. You've supplied me with my annual new vocabulary word:
