Subject: Wrapped method causing infinite recursion in rcov

I added this to my rails test helper to check for valid HTML automatically:

  # Wrap around get to check the markup on :success requests.
  alias_method :old_get, :get
  def get(*args)
    old_get(*args)
    if @response.success?
      assert_valid_markup
    end
  end

This works fine with my tests. When running rcov though it creates
infinite recursion in the call to old_get. Has anyone tried anything
of the sort? Is it a bug in rcov?

Pedro.
