DRb remote method call with keyword argument occurs warning message of deprecated on Ruby 2.7.0, and fails on Ruby 2.8.0dev

On Ruby 2.7.0 (ruby 2.7.0p0 (2019-12-25 revision 647ee6f091) [x86_64-linux]), DRb remote method call with keyword argument occurs warning message of deprecated.
On Ruby snapshot (ruby 2.8.0dev (2020-02-14 master 78282d4655) [x86_64-linux]), DRb remote method call with keyword argument fails.

Test Script:

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'drb'
require 'securerandom'
require 'test/unit'

def make_drbunix_uri
  "drbunix:/tmp/#{File.basename($0, '.rb')}.#{SecureRandom.uuid}"
end

DRb.start_service(make_drbunix_uri)

class DRbRemoteMethodCallTest < Test::Unit::TestCase
  class Example
    def ping
      :pong
    end

    def foo(test: 'default')
      test
    end

    def bar(test: 'default')
      yield(test)
    end
  end

  def wait_server(remote_object)
    begin
      remote_object.ping
    rescue DRb::DRbConnError
      sleep(0.1)
      retry
    end
  end

  def setup
    @uri = make_drbunix_uri
    @pid = fork{
      DRb.start_service(@uri, Example.new)
      DRb.thread.join
    }

    @remote_object = DRbObject.new_with_uri(@uri)
    wait_server(@remote_object)
  end

  def teardown
    Process.kill(:TERM, @pid)
    Process.wait
  end

  test 'pass keyword argument to remote method call' do
    assert_equal('halo', @remote_object.foo(test: 'halo'))
  end

  test 'pass keyword argument to remote method call with block' do
    assert_equal('halo', @remote_object.bar(test: 'halo') {|t| t })
  end
end
