The other than might bite you is if you are using something like the RUBYLIB environment variable to assist ruby with finding helper methods you may have located in a specific directory. That can also cause the same error when you are trying to require the file that holds those methods.
Sorry to hear that you had some many issues trying to upgrade your scripts. If you can give us any kind of post-mortem dump of the hard parts of the experience, it might help to figure out how to better document the process, or make things easier in the future. We really need to improve the user experience there. I've been doing similar upgrades, but to scripts a bit newer than yours, and perhaps that has made a big difference for me.
