warning and remove_method are not related with super.  IIRC, warning
was caused when you replace an existing method without making any
alias to the original.

  class Foo
    def foo
      p :foo
    end
  end
  class Bar < Foo
    def foo
    end
    # warning
    def foo
    end
    # remove foo in Bar
    remove_method :foo
    # no warning
    def foo
      super  # calls foo in Foo
    end
  end
  Bar.new.foo
