On Rubyforge. 

For just the evil.rb file:
http://rubyforge.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/evil/lib/evil.rb?rev=1.37&cvsroot=evil&content-type=text/vnd.viewcvs-markup

For the whole cvs:
http://rubyforge.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/cgi/viewcvs.cgi/cvs_root.tar.gz?tarball=1&cvsroot=evil


And here she is:

# Like Object, but this provides no methods at all.
# You can derivate your own Classes from this Class
# if you want them to have no preset methods.
#
#   obj = KernellessObject.new
#   obj.methods # ~> NoMethodError
class KernellessObject
  def self.new
    obj = ::Object.new
    obj.class = self
    return obj
  end

  self.superclass = nil
end


Seems to be that this is a bit more than just "Kernelless", this looks more 
like the hollow ShellOfObject :)
