Shugo,

I like this a lot. One final suggestion: instance_eval and class_eval should
take arguments like instance_exec. Then, the only difference between
instance_eval and instance_exec would be the constant lookup scope.

It also should not break any 1.8 code since instance_eval does not take
arguments in 1.8.

I'm very excited about this!
