Subject: [ruby-talk:21087] nested method definition!!!

I keep getting a "nested method definition" error. Although I have
failed to find the documentation for this specific error, I presume it's
when you do the following:
def foo(val1)
    def bar(val2)
    end
end

The strange this is, I'm not doing anything like this. Maybe something
in Ruby is broken. I have looked over my code so many times (and it's
only 190 lines), and I can't see a problem.
I'm using 1.6.4 on Linux, everything else works fine.

Please let me know exactly what might cause a "nested method definition
error". Then I'll check my code. If I'm more sure that what I'm doing is
right, I'll go ahead and post the code here and perhaps fill out a bug
report.

-thanks
