#block_exec(*args, &block) ⇒ Object

Allows the evaluation of blocks by a Binding in the same way that strings can be evaluated.

x = 5
$my_binding = binding

class Test  # just here to provide a scope gate
  $my_binding.block_exec { x }
end

# => 5

NOTE: The implementation of this method uses a method_missing trick.

Consequently it is a bit of a hack.
