Any thoughts on how to correct these? I've gone into the original code, and haven't seen the eval'd statements that are directly addressing unslashed variables. Wonder if anyone else has scrubbed old mods like these before?

99.9% of the time "eval()'d code" are errors related to a plugin being used. You could go through your plugins one-by-one disabling then checking for errors after refreshing, in-between disabling each to possibly track down the culprit. Although, considering vBAdvanced is a ginat plugin in itself, this could be related to code that still needs to be updated to work properly with your current version of PHP, I'd imagine it's how vBAdvanced parses some forum data or values by using it's own queries that hook into the site through the use of vBAdvanced.
