This uses eval on a string, which can be dangerous, but if you are  
already
reading script files and executing them....

module X
   TEST = 5
end

class A; end
a = A.new

class <<a
   def instance_binding
     binding
   end
end

script = "extend X; p TEST"  # could read this from a file

eval script, a.instance_binding   # XXX dangerous
