|It would be helpful if BasicObject could be back-ported to Ruby for v1.8.8. But not as the underlying superclass or all objects --I understand that's a 1.9+ feature, but just as a separate class we can use use for custom classes. For instance I have an OpenStruct-like class that could use it. Right now I use an imitation BlankSlate, but it is not very robust and I run into limitations with testing b/c of of #undef_method.

I see very little (virtually no) chance for the idea, that even
enhance the gap between 1.8 and 1.9.
