I'm not sure we should be so quick to close this. At the very least, I 
think the documentation could be improved.

It does seem desirable to have the invariant:

    `expression` == `eval("expression")`

apply in any environment. Was the change in behaviour between 2 and 3 
intentional, or just a side-effect of the change in implementation?
