Description

To me this looks like a bug. It causes stack level too deep in all versions of Ruby (1.9 and 2.0 at least).

class Test
attr_accessor :uuid
def uuid
self.uuid ||=1
end
end

Test.new.uuid
SystemStackError: stack level too deep
from /Users/pain/.rbenv/versions/1.9.3-p374/lib/ruby/1.9.1/irb/workspace.rb:80
Maybe IRB bug!
