That's precisely the case. I am talking about default parameters not 
working when use_keywords is False. Sorry, I thought I mentioned that 
earlier in a previous bug report.

I think surely you will need to use 
BOOST_PYTHON_MEMBER_FUNCTION_OVERLOADS() for when keywords are not 
enabled?

I think that I have use_keywords as False is enough? Try your unit 
test with use_keywords as False, if that still works I will modify 
one of your unit tests to show the behaviour.
