Up to now i understand the rules as follows (correct me if i am
wrong):

The following things are legal things to do (correct me if i am
wrong):

1. meth A announces a bleed action, prey declines to block, the meth
bleeding asks all meths if they block, they all decline, plays
conditioning and now none has the option to block even with eagle
sight (not even Anneke due to the new errata).

2. meth A announces a bleed action, prey anounces block attempt, meth
A in order to draw some stealth plays a conditioning, draws a lost in
crowds and plays it, then a meth with eagle sight announces a block
attempt and blocks with a domain.

3. Anneke can no longer block whenever she want, e.g. meth A bleeds,
all decline to block, plays a condtitioning, the meth being bled
cannot reduce and he is being ousted, Anneke cannot block at this
point due to the new errata.

4. Anneke's ability (according to the new errata) is completely
identical to eagle sight sup., right ?

Correct.
(Anneke due to new printing).

Previously Anneke could still have been "defeated" by asking for
Anneke's block after all other players. Once she declines, she's
done as well.

OK.

New printing, correct. Previously she could have been defeated by
asking for her block prior to the Conditioning.

It is not cancelable by DI or such, but otherwise, sure. :-)

Yes.

The acting Methuselah gets to order what happens, when. When he asks
for blocks (and goes round for all blocks), you have to answer yay or
nay.

If you're asked (either specifically, or in general "Anyone doing funky
Eagle's Sight style stuff?" then yes, you have to answer.
