Bug #7663

Unable to invoke a method with `**kwargs` if the receiver doesn't define keyword arguments

Description

This works:

def hello
puts "hello"
end

hello(*[])

This does not:

def hello
puts "hello"
end

hello(**{})

I may be misunderstanding the idea behind the keyword arguments, but I would expect them to behave similarly to regular arguments when used with splat.
