What does an eval $* do in a runscript shell?

I am looking at some code written for the runscript shell interpreter, and I
was wondering what the "eval $*" is supposed to do?
This was taken from a line which reads:
errstr="$((eval $*) 2>&1)"
Is there any decent documentation available for runscript?
Mark.
