I'm not sure one could easily parse, or moreover report, this error better.

Hmm. Here are my thoughts. The parameters are "supposed" to be specified. If someone omits them, he is presumably purposely using the default names -- in effect he is redeclaring those local names -- and he should not be amazed when he gets the innermost definition. If he doesn't like that behavior, he can specify his own parameter names or else rename the local variables. But it might be worthwhile to have Ruby print a warning about this. (?)
