Calling shadowed methods in an inherited object

Can’t do a super.foo. An ugly unreliable hack might be:

class A
def foo
puts “A::foo”
end
end

class B < A
alias_method :bar, :foo

def foo
puts “B::Foo”
end
end

b = B.new
b.foo
b.bar

If I have code like:

class A
def foo
puts “A::foo”
end
end

class B < A
def foo
puts “B::foo”
end
def bar
# call A::foo
end
end

Is there a legal way to call A::foo from B::bar?
