Should it not do it after doing the implicit splat? I thought that when a proc had an argument list with more than one element, it was the same to call it with a single array argument than with the same array splatted: Proc{|a, ...| ... }.call([...]) == Proc{|a, ...}| ... }.call(*[...]) # => Because of implicit splat But we have currently: Proc.new{|a, *b, **c| p a, b, c}.call(1,2, bar: 3) # => 1, [2], {:bar=>3} : OK Proc.new{|a, *b, **c| p a, b, c}.call([1,2, bar: 3]) # => 1, [2, {:bar=>3}], {}: Expected same as above Proc.new{|(a, *b), **c| p a, b, c}.call([1,2], bar: 3) # => 1, [2], {:bar=>3} : OK Proc.new{|(a, *b), **c| p a, b, c}.call([[1,2], bar: 3]) # => [1, 2], [{:bar=>3}], {}: Expected same as above As an additional note, this affects some methods of Enumerable when yielding multiple arguments. For example: def each; yield 1, 2, bar: 3; end include Enumerable each{|a, *b, **c| p a, b, c} # => 1, [2], {:bar => 3}: ok detect{|a, *b, **c| p a, b, c} # => 1, [2, {:bar => 3}], {}: should be the same, no? -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
