Yep, much cleaner :-).
I made a mess while I was typing in irb about closing the << self early,
and forgetting to initialize the array, so that was the result. I
probably wanted to type this:

irb(main):001:0> class A
irb(main):002:1> class << self
irb(main):003:2> attr_reader :subclasses
irb(main):004:2> def inherited(child)
irb(main):005:3> subclasses << child
irb(main):006:3> end
irb(main):007:2> end
irb(main):008:1> @subclasses = []
irb(main):009:1> end

but anyway your version is cleaner...

Jesus.
