I don’t think those integration instructions apply any more. For example, there is no plugin necessary any longer.

Did you try just installing and see how it goes? Install WordPress first, then bbPress. Use WordPress 2.5.1 and bbPress 0.9.0.2 and integration will be no problem.

Once you get basic integration going, you can work on getting bbPress to look like WordPress if that is important to you.
