If I were to write one, could a patch adding support for Object#instance_exec

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.
I'd have no problems here -- but how to prevent application code from
overriding a good implementation with a faulty one -- are people
starting to write code that conditionally defines it?
