 To take your example, it do this

vgs% cat b.rb
#!/usr/bin/ruby
module Kern

  def Kern.sel
    puts "select"
  end

  private
  def sel
     puts "select"
  end

end


class Obj
  include Kern
end


class Test < Obj
  def method_missing(meth_sym, *args)
    puts "method missing"
  end

  def meth1
    puts "meth1"
    self.sel
  end

  def meth2
    puts "meth2"
    sel
  end
end


t = Test.new
t.meth1
t.meth2
vgs%
 
vgs% ./b.rb
meth1
method missing
meth2
select
vgs%
