Oh... That's strange!  So eval creates a new binding for new local
variables, instead of the given binding.  I wonder if that is the intended
behaviour... Maybe it could be a solution to declare the variables that
you need:

fname, sname, age = nil
<your code with eval>
<code using fname, sname, age>

The variables that you don't need will be inside eval,
but you don't need them anyway.
