Oh, I'm not blaming anyone.

I'm sorry about r36411. I reverted it when I realized Proc were meant to differ from lambdas.

Bug #5694: Proc#arity doesn't take optional arguments into account. 
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/5694#change-28156

Author: marcandre (Marc-Andre Lafortune)
Status: Open
Priority: Normal
Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada)
Category: core
Target version: 
ruby -v: -


Currently:

    ->(foo = 42){}.arity # => 0, should be -1

This is contrary to the documentation and to what we should expect from the equivalent method definition.

Fixed in trunk, requesting backport for the 1.9 line.
