 Priority:  major                          |   Milestone:  MacRuby 0.10            
Component:  MacRuby                        |    Keywords:  Keyword Module Extension
-------------------------------------------+--------------------------------
 A method added as an extension to the Kernel Module is not available in
 subclass of Object through super. In one instance a subclass of object is
 not able to call a method defined in the Kernel module through super,
 claiming that –

 ... super: no superclass method ...

 One work around is to add the method to both Object and Kernel. Adding the
 method to either but not both does not resolve the issue.

 Note: Niether MRI or Rubinius require this.

 MacRuby 0.9 (ruby 1.9.2) [universal-darwin10.0, x86_64]

 Thanks, and happy hunting :).
