What about fine graining the control to the closure?

Not tested:
class MyBlah
  blah = [ 0, 1 ]
  extend( Module::new do
     define_method :[] do |idx| blah[ idx ] end
     define_method :blah do blah.dup.freeze end
     define_method :[]= do |idx, value|  do_all_my_checks
        blah[ idx ] = some_fancy_function( value )

  end
  )
