If you want to experiment with MOP's, then a prototype-based system is
exactly what you are looking for.  If you had trouble with Cecil there
is a Linux port of Self I've been using which seems stable enough:

The concepts are simple enough, just create objects which behave an
awful lot like classes (and have objects with lots of convenient methods
for creating those "classes").  This is easier than it sounds with
prototypes where inheritence is dynamic.
