Um... it works for me.

irb(main):001:0> class Foo; end
nil
irb(main):002:0> def Foo.abc
irb(main):003:1> 'abc'
irb(main):004:1> end
nil
irb(main):005:0> class Bar < Foo
irb(main):006:1> end
nil
irb(main):007:0> Foo.abc
"abc"
irb(main):008:0> Bar.abc    # => "abc" because method "abc" is 'inherited'
"abc"
