Yes, I got this to work too but not for nested describes as below:

describe "group options hash", :defined_in => :group do
   ..
   describe "nested describe wont work"
    it "is available in examples via self.class.options" do
     self.class.options[:defined_in].should == :group # WONT work
    end
   end

end

BTW. I am actually accessing the hash from within a common helper
files in a before action setup by Spec::Runner.configure. Hence it is
important that accessing the Hash work regardless of how the describes
are nested.
