[1.9] Module hierarchy issues in const_defined? method 
-------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: JRUBY-4197
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/JRUBY-4197
             Project: JRuby
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core Classes/Modules, Ruby 1.9
            Reporter: David Calavera


This script seems to work fine at glance, but internally RubyModule uses a 
different hierarchy. RubyModule uses getSuperClass() method internally that 
returns ModuleA as the super class of Child rather than Parent. In Ruby 1.9 
const_defined? returns true if the constant is defined in the parent class but 
this desn't work in jruby due to this issue.

{code}
module ModuleA
  CONST_A = :CONST_A
end

class Parent
  CONST_P = :CONST_P
end

class Child < Parent
  include ModuleA
end

puts 'INVOKING SUPERCLASS METHOD: ' + Child.superclass.name
puts "IS CONST DEFINED? #{Child.const_defined?(:CONST_P)}"
{code}
