Thanks @kmf - I moved this issue over to the Cookstyle repo

I noticed this the other day. Something changed in Rubocop itself and I need to track that down.

This is fixed in #735

I checked out an old release with an older RuboCop and this cop was running even though we have it disabled. In newer releases it doesn't run. I just enabled it in our config, which is what we should have had from the start. Thanks for the report @kmf
