[Ruby] copying methods around

[Aaron Patterson]

I'm sure there's an easy way to do this, but I can't seem to find it!  I
want to copy a method from one class to another instance.  Here is a short
example that doesn't work, but I think illustrates what I am trying to do:

class PhilCollins
  def sussudio
    puts "I'm in #{self.class}"
  end

  def self.easy_lover
    os = OpenStruct.new
    alias os.sussudio :sussudio
    os
  end
end

f = PhilCollins.easy_lover
f.sussudio

The important line is the "alias" line.  I'm trying to copy the sussudio
method to the open struct instance.  I'm not sure if this has much bearing
on the solution, but the "sussudio" method is dynamically defined.
