Subject: [ruby-core:69725] [Ruby trunk - Bug #11301] Module#prepend should have always added the module before the current

Issue #11301 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.

Description updated

I think we have tried it some times but not made a conclusion.

Change `Module#prepend` only?

Bug #11301: Module#prepend should have always added the module before the current

----------------------------------------
I don't think it's ideal:

~~~ruby
module M
end  

class A
  prepend M
end  

A.ancestors
# => [M, A, Object, PP::ObjectMixin, Kernel, BasicObject]

class B<A
  prepend M
end  
B.ancestors
# => [B, M, A, Object, PP::ObjectMixin, Kernel, BasicObject]
~~~

It should be either error (for not adding module) or the module appearing multiple times,
i.e. `B.ancestors` to be

~~~
[M, B, M, A, Object, PP::ObjectMixin, Kernel, BasicObject]
~~~

Matz.
