Probably no eval magic, unless you are thinking of a more advanced version of 
Sym#to_proc than I have been using. 

I define it with:

Class Symbol
Def to_proc
Lambda {|x| x.send(self)}
End
End

Sure, it doesn't cover everything, but it hits the 90% cases.

Yep, we already have other methods from 1.8.7, like instance_exec. The 
advantage of having these in 1.8.6 is that it will work in apps that check if 
to_proc method is present. I guess they might do some eval magic if the method 
is not implemented which slows things down.

So we're going to have sym#to_proc available in the core 1.8 implementation? 
Other than that question, this looks good.

Now I have to go remove some hacks ;)
