Perhaps just try to remember that only classes have class_eval, and only
instances (i.e. everything) has instance_eval. Hence, since all objects
could have singleton methods, instance_eval must add methods to the
singleton class, whereas what you put in a `class_eval' block is similar to
when you use the `class' keyword itself.
