Subject: rdoc bug - alias shows up in public class methods, wrongly

I have a class method and instance method with the same name, and #to_s
is aliased to the instance method, but rdoc thinks #to_s is an alias
to the class method.

Here's the code:

  class Bug
    # new
    def initialize
    end

    # class method mkstr
    def Bug.mkstr
      "class"
    end


    # method mkstr
    def mkstr
      "instance"
    end

    alias to_s mkstr
  end

#to_s is showing up in the class methods section!

rdoc --version:

  RDoc Vgs: 2003/08/22 12:33:37 (1.72) 

I think I'm using alias correctly:

  [ensemble] /tmp $ irb -r bug.rb 
  irb(main):001:0> Bug.new.to_s
  "instance"
  irb(main):001:0> Bug.to_s
  "Bug"

Cheers,
Sam
