I suppose so.  I have, however, reworked my code and am instead using
the $LOADED_FEATURES check.  It works for what I need and since
there’s really no way to solve it with constants in a uniform and
simple way, that’ll do.

The point was that it needn’t necessarily be a check for constants
being defined.

I don’t really think we can get any further in this thread.  Thank you
for your input and I hope that this has been an educational thread on
dealing with constants in Ruby to more subscribers than me.
