I'd like advice on how to handle method invocations that include special

The idea is to turn the block into a closure pmc. The problem is how to
pass this to the method, so that it knows that it's a special block
parameter. Particularly in a way so that a language which doesn't know
about blocks can still call Ruby code.
Can't you just compile the code like this:
new_pad 0
newsub $clos, .Closure, _do_something
method($clos)
...
.sub _do_something
new_pad -1
...
and pass the closure as additional argument to the method?
