Irb's lexer is not as complete. I can't think of any examples, but when
developing this, I played around with irb quite a bit, trying different
syntaces. Irb would do pretty good most of the time, but every so
often, I'd come up with something that had to be wrapped in eval %() in
order to work in irb...
