| Yes, my problem is with
|
|   class D
|   end
|
|   module A
|      class D
|      end
|   end
|
| if I'm right
|
|   class A::B < D
|   end
|

|
|   module A

Yes, you're right as always.  It should be treated as if

  tmp = D
  module A
    class B < tmp
    end
  end

If you want the latter, you have to

  class A::B < A::D
  end
