 module_function works for explicit declarations, but seems to have a
 problem (ArgumentError) with 1-arg splat methods when used implicitly.  I
 think a fix here will help compatibility with various libraries (e.g.,
 Linguistics).  Best to show with code:

 module SplatTesting
     def use( *languages )
         p "def use( *languages )"
     end
     module_function :use

     module_function
     def useBROKEN( *languages )
         p "def useBROKEN( *languages )"
     end
 end
 SplatTesting.use                  #  => "def use( *languages )"
 SplatTesting.use 'foo'            #  => "def use( *languages )"
 SplatTesting.useBROKEN            #  => "def useBROKEN( *languages )"
 SplatTesting.useBROKEN 'foo'      #  wrong number of arguments (1 for 0)
 for useBROKEN: (ArgumentError)
