I'm not surprised by that. I'm surprised that standard def...end syntax
inside instance_eval behaves differently from being in the class scope,
when the self object in both cases is the same.

irb(main):001:0> class Foo
irb(main):002:1>   p "Defining aa in #{self}##{self.object_id}"
irb(main):003:1>   def aa; p :aa; end
irb(main):004:1>   instance_eval{
irb(main):005:2*     p "Defining bb in #{self}##{self.object_id}"
irb(main):006:2>     def bb; p :bb; end
irb(main):007:2>   }
irb(main):008:1> end
"Defining aa in Foo#1699170"
"Defining bb in Foo#1699170"
=> nil
irb(main):009:0> Foo.new.aa
:aa
=> nil
irb(main):010:0> Foo.bb
:bb
=> nil
