Hmm, I don't think it's possible by plain Ruby.

Options:

  (1) provide a method to rebind Proc's self.
  (2) remove static from rb_yield_0() and make simple extension.
  (3) whatever else

|     hook :upcase do |_upcase, str|
|       res = _upcase(str)
|       res.tr '_', '~'
|     end
|
|   end

|The first parameter to the block is a proc object that wraps the

How did you do that.  Show me your (imcomplete?) code.
