I can't find a solution, I suspect Ruby 1.8 can't do this, but I'm guessing.

Can I ask why you want to do this though?  As another example, it would be unusual to spec something like:

  @array = [1, 2, 3]
  @array.should_receive(:map).with(block_that_doubles_values)

You'd instead check that the array that came out was [2, 4, 6].
