Re: Is there a way to instrument for edebug a form (say, a progn) given to `eval'?

Of course, this is a silly use of `eval' and for more real uses this
problem typically doesn't happen.  This said, you can try

   (eval (edebug-\` (progn (message "foo") (message "bar"))))

Where edebug-\` is an alias for the normal backquote which tells Edebug
that the quoted data is actually dynamically-generated code, so Edebug
can try to "do the right thing".
