Subject: Re: determining when inside 'class << self'

Have not tested thouroughly but...

  class Object
    def idioclass? ; false ; end
  end

  class Class
    alias :newnew :new
    def new( *args )
      class << self
        def idioclass? ; !super ; end
      end
      newnew( *args )
    end
  end

  # test

  class A
    def initialize
      p idioclass?  #=> false
      class << self
        p idioclass?  #=> true
      end
    end
  end

  a = A.new

produces

  false
  true
