I understand that the problem is in the MacRuby side, but you will  
have to wait until it's fixed (or help us fixing it). Using the "old"  
technique might work in the interim.

Filing a bug would be great. It would also be great if you could  
prepare a MacRuby spec that describes this behavior. It could be in  
spec/macruby/language/method_spec.rb.
