Subject: [Q] how to detect if #super exists?

I'm writing some modules that I use to replace/extend the  
functionality in a base class. I want to test these modules without  
adding them to the original class.

My problem is that some of the module methods call #super to preserve  
the base class' functionality. However, in the spec there is no base  
class and therefore no #super so I get a NoMethodError.

What is the proper way to check for the existence of a #super method  
before invoking it?
