Ah, ok. Then I guess everything's fine. It was just the
/* make sure there are no duplicate values for an argument; its not clear when to use the term "keyword argument vs. keyword parameter in messages */
that disturbed me.

Correct usage is argument for the call site but parameter for the function/method definition. So you can't just count occurrences.

looking at bug #1283289, I saw that the term "keyword parameter" is used in Python/getargs.c, mixed with "keyword argument". Grepping through the source, "keyword parameter" had 43 matches, while "keyword argument" had 430. Should the "parameter" form be extinguished?
