------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  mod.const_defined?(sym, inherit=true)   -> true or false

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Returns true if a constant with the given name is defined by mod, or its
ancestors if inherit is not false.

  Math.const_defined? "PI"   #=> true
  IO.const_defined? "SYNC"   #=> true
  IO.const_defined? "SYNC", false   #=> false

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  mod.const_get(sym, inherit=true)    -> obj

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Returns the value of the named constant in mod.

  Math.const_get(:PI)   #=> 3.14159265358979

If the constant is not defined or is defined by the ancestors and inherit is
false, NameError will be raised.
