Bug #5930: source_location of blocks incorrect
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5930

ruby -v: 1.9.2-p136 and newer


Similar to bug #2427 but maybe the opposite problem. Newer versions of ruby appear to store the source locations of blocks incorrectly when passed as an argument to a multi-line invocation of a function. Snippet of code below reveals the problem:

-----
def foo(*args, &block)
    p block.source_location
end

foo(1,
    2,
    3) do
end
-----

Under ruby 1.9.1-p243: ["-", 8]

Under ruby 1.9.2-p136 and newer: ["-", 5]

It seems with newer versions of ruby, it reports it based on the line on which the function is called instead of where the actual block is. I believe the old behaviour is actually the correct behaviour.
