Like:

I think we can probably do away with this excessive use of eval, and
just keep a boolean flag for "is -x in effect" and check it inside
test_eval_. Originally I was trying to keep the number of executed
commands down, because everything until the "set +x" ran (including
checks for an "is -x in effect" flag) was shown to the user. But since
that is no longer the case, we can be less stingy with the conditionals.
