Can anyone familar with the "usersub" hooks linking "c" routines into perl
think of a way to call eval from within usersub.  I can't figure out
how to place my text string into a string and pass it eval to be executed
within the context of the perl script in progress.  The return value is
insignificant.  This will most likely be used to execute perl subs, something
like this,    eval("&my_sub");
