I don't think you can do that, without parentheses:

irb(main):008:0> def foo(x, y)
irb(main):009:1>   x.call
irb(main):010:1>   y.call
irb(main):011:1> end
=> nil
irb(main):012:0> foo {|| }, {|| }
SyntaxError: compile error
(irb):12: syntax error
foo {|| }, {|| }
           ^
(That's CVS from about 10 minutes ago :-)
