Hello,

I have discovered a regression in the behaviour of (({defined?(super)})). It functions as expected in 1.9.3-p392, but has changed in 2.0.0-p0 and in 2.1.0dev (2013-05-03 trunk 40571).

On Ruby 1.9.3, the call returns the string (({"super"})). On 2.0.0-p0 and above, the call returns (({nil})). The change seems to be specific to the inside of a block in a method that is defined in a module that is extended onto the object where the method is called.

This is a minimal reproduction example, which I have also attached as "super-gone.rb".

 class C
    def x; end
 end
 
 module M
   def b; yield; end
 
   def x
     b do
       # On 1.9.3, this is "super", but on 2.0.0 it is nil
       p defined?(super)
     end
   end
 end
 
 c = C.new
 c.extend M
 c.x
 

Thank you.
