Rakudo (r34146) correctly excludes optional arguments from its counting,
but not named ones, which are also optional​:

$ ./perl6 -e 'sub a($x, $y?) { }; sub b ($x, :$y) { }; say &a.arity; say
&b.arity'
1
2 # should be 1 as well
$

Tests are in t/spec/S06-signature/arity.t

Cheers,
Moritz

Now fixed in r34248, thanks!
