The .pdf documentation of -ml- has changed, but only on the
web: <http://www.stata.com/support/errata/i/stata11/ml.pdf>.

The documentation that pops up when you click on the link
within the help file shows at the top the message:
"The documentation for [R] ml has been updated. To see the 
latest PDF of [R] ml, click here."

I missed that sentence to and Stata's techsupport had to
point it out to me. Maybe they can make it bold, or 
let it blink in different colors, or ...

Hope this helps,
Maarten
