Subject: [1.9] Is this right behavior?

#!/usr/bin/env ruby19

def y( a, b = 5, *args, d)
   puts
   puts "a: #{a}  b: #{b}  args: #{args}  d:#{d}"
end

y(1, :args => 's')           ## a: 1  b: 5  args: []  d:{:args=>"s"}
y(1, 2, { :args => 's' }, 3) ## a: 1  b: 2  args: [{:args=>"s"}]  d:3
y(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)             ## a: 1  b: 2  args: [3, 4]  d:5


# y(1, 2, :args => 's', 3)  # syntax error -- why?
                             # expected:
                             ##     a: 1 b: 2   args [{:args=>'s'}]  d: 3
                             ## or: a: 1 b: 2   [3]       d: {:args=>'s'}
