Issue #20570 has been updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh).

Status changed from Open to Assigned
Assignee set to ko1 (Koichi Sasada)

The following example is easy to understand this issue:

```ruby
def foo(*, **nil); :ok; end

foo(1, **{})    #=> Ruby 3.2: :ok
                #=> Ruby 3.3: :ok
foo(*[1], **{}) #=> Ruby 3.2: :ok
                #=> Ruby 3.3: no keywords accepted (ArgumentError)
```

It's an obvious regression.

Accoding to git bisect, the behavior has changed with commit:e87d0882910001ef3b0c2ccd43bf00cee8c34a0c. @ko1 Could you take a look? 

----------------------------------------
Bug #20570: Nokey behavior changed since 3.3.
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/20570#change-108767

* Author: ksss (Yuki Kurihara)
* Status: Assigned
* Assignee: ko1 (Koichi Sasada)
* ruby -v: ruby 3.3.2 (2024-05-30 revision e5a195edf6) [arm64-darwin22]
* Backport: 3.1: UNKNOWN, 3.2: UNKNOWN, 3.3: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
I am using code that transfers the following method call, but found that the behavior has changed since CRuby 3.3.

```ruby
receiver_value = Set.new
method_name = :merge
args = [1]
kwargs = {}
block = nil
receiver_value.__send__(method_name, *args, **kwargs, &block)
# => no keywords accepted (ArgumentError)
```

Upon investigation, I found that the behavior of calling a method using `**nil` has changed starting from version 3.3.

Is this change intentional?
