In light of BooK's semi-challenge in the chatterbox, I give you an obfuscation that evals eight levels deep. Have fun! 
#!/usr/bin/perl
use constant LEVELS => 8;

$\ = "\n"; $_ = ('eval ' x LEVELS) . '\'e()\''; print eval;

sub e()
{
<<'Z';
my ($qw, $my) = qw(my qw);
my (%sub);
$sub{a} = sub {
    "\$; = join \$,, map { \"\\\$\$_,\" } (\'$_[0]\'..\'$_[1]\');" };
$sub{b} = sub {
    "\$z{$_[0]} = \"\$qw (\$;) =\";" };
$sub{c} = sub {
    "\$; = join \' \', $my/$_[0]/;" };
$sub{d} = sub {
    "\$z{$_[0]} = \"\$$qw (\$;) ;\";" };
$sub{e} = sub {
    "\$z{$_[0]} .= (join \"\\\$\", ($_[1]));" };
$sub{f} = sub {
    "\$z{$_[0]} .= \"$_[1]\";" };
join ";\n", "$qw (\$$my, \$$qw) = $my($qw $my);", "$qw %z;", "local \$

$sub{c}->('e s i t v l r $ _ [ ] 0 .'), $sub{d}->('2'),
