 This is not the problem. When you write an extension, you use the same API
 than ruby. If you change the API, you must completely change the source
 of ruby.

 I've the strange impression that you want named parameter only for user
 defined methods. If I have named parameter, I expect also to have named
 parameters for *all* methods of ruby
