Kernel#__method__ within a proc returns incorrect value after method definition #2212

When defining more than one method within a class using a proc that returns __method__ all methods will return the symbol representing the last defined method:

DEFINITION = proc { __method__ }

class C
  define_method :one, DEFINITION
  define_method :two, DEFINITION
end

o = C.new

puts o.one  #=> :two (in MRI this returns :one)
puts o.two  #=> :two

Casting DEFINITION into a code block during the method's definition seems to be working correctly though:

class C
  define_method :one, &DEFINITION
  define_method :two, &DEFINITION
end

o = C.new

puts o.one  #=> :one
puts o.two  #=> :two

A lengthier description of the problem can be found at this post in Stack Overflow.

working as expected in JRuby 9.1.16 (and likely earlier releases as well) :

jruby-9.1.16.0 :046 > DEFINITION = proc { __method__ }
 => #<Proc:0xd23e042@(irb):46> 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :047 > 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :048 >   class C
jruby-9.1.16.0 :049?>     define_method :one, DEFINITION
jruby-9.1.16.0 :050?>     define_method :two, DEFINITION
jruby-9.1.16.0 :051?>   end
 => :two 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :052 > 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :053 >   o = C.new
 => #<C:0x66ea810> 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :054 > puts o.one 
two
 => nil 
jruby-9.1.16.0 :055 > puts o.two
two
 => nil

@kares, I believe this is still working incorrectly, as the following should print "one" instead to match MRI's behaviour:

jruby-9.1.16.0 :054 > puts o.one 
two
 => nil

@gdeoliveira right, have misread what is expected and what is JRuby behavior ... let's have it open than

Likely an issue with how the define_method methods share frames. However I'd have expected them to have their own names for super at least.

I pushed a PR that fixes this. Needs specs for the given case and for super inside a similar case as noted in #5214. @gdeoliveira Perhaps you'd like to try your hand at contributing to https://github.com/ruby/spec?
