Bug #901: RDoc does not handle multiple method description for a C function properly

=begin
RDoc does not handle method description properly when some method descriptions are assigned onto a C function.
For example, documentation for Object#hash is curious.

This happened at trunk. ruby_1_8 branch seems to work correctly.

% ri-trunk --version
ri-trunk 2.2.2

% ri-trunk Object#object_id
----------------------------------------------------- Object#object_id
obj.id => fixnum
obj.object_id => fixnum

  From Ruby 1.9.1

---

  Returns an integer identifier for obj. The same number will be 
  returned on all calls to id for a given object, and no two 
  active objects will share an id. Object#object_id is a different 
  concept from the :name notation, which returns the symbol id of 
  name. Replaces the deprecated Object#id.

% ri-trunk Object#hash
---------------------------------------------------------- Object#hash
obj.id => fixnum
obj.object_id => fixnum

  From Ruby 1.9.1

---

      Document-method: <em>id</em>
      Document-method: object_id
  
      Returns an integer identifier for <em>obj</em>. The same number will
      be returned on all calls to <tt>id</tt> for a given object, and
      no two active objects will share an id.
      <tt>Object#object_id</tt> is a different concept from the
      <tt>:name</tt> notation, which returns the symbol id of
      <tt>name</tt>. Replaces the deprecated <tt>Object#id</tt>.

  /*

      call-seq:
         obj.hash    => fixnum
  
      Generates a <tt>Fixnum</tt> hash value for this object. This
      function must have the property that <tt>a.eql?(b)</tt> implies
      <tt>a.hash == b.hash</tt>. The hash value is used by class
      <tt>Hash</tt>. Any hash value that exceeds the capacity of a
      <tt>Fixnum</tt> will be truncated before being used.
