Meh.  I s'pose I can substitute an underscore for a period:

  my_obj.foo_some_method(*args)

.. whereupon this become a simple mixin on my_obj's class:

  def foo_some_method(*args) {
    MyClass.some_method(self, *args)
  }

The only potential disadvantage is that I need to write one of these for 
each method.  The advantages include likely to run much faster (than 
constructing lambdas or invoking method_missing processing) and possibly 
easier to understand and maintain than what I was originally trying to 
do.
