If I were to write one, could a patch adding support for Object#instance_exec 
make it in for 1.0?

It's one of those things that everyone keeps re-implementing themselves, but 
only inefficiently [and usually without thread-safety] as it requires support 
from the implementation (or at least native code) to do right.  

Since most of the ad-hoc implementations will defer to an existing 
implementation, it could be a correctness and (minor) performance win for JRuby.
