Issue #10856 has been reported by Sean Griffin.

----------------------------------------
Bug #10856: Splat with empty keyword args gives unexpected results
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/10856

* Author: Sean Griffin
* Status: Open
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee:
* ruby -v: ruby 2.2.0p0 (2014-12-25 revision 49005) [x86_64-darwin13]
* Backport: 2.0.0: UNKNOWN, 2.1: UNKNOWN, 2.2: UNKNOWN
----------------------------------------
When keyword args are passed to a method with splat, and there are no keyword args, an empty hash is sent. I would expect no argument to be given, same as splat with an empty array. For example:

def foo
end

foo(**{})

This causes an argument error, as an empty hash is passed. I would expect the same behavior as

def foo
end

foo(*[])
