No matching arities when defining multiple arity protocol method

Question

When defining multiple-arity protocol methods with clojure.core.typed/defprotocol, deftypes implementing these methods fail to typecheck with "No matching arities" errors. See attached test case.

i found a quite similar problem with defrecord. Is there some kind of workaround?

project.clj http://pastebin.com/bn6giuvH
core_typed_bug/core.clj http://pastebin.com/JjfhWLSH
error message http://pastebin.com/djsAicd1

---

with clojure 1.7.0-beta2 and core.typed 0.2.87

`
(ns core-typed-bug.core
(:require [ clojure.core.typed :as t ]))

(t/defprotocol P
(f
[a] :- Any
[a b :- Any] :- Any))

(t/ann-record R [])
(defrecord R []
P
(f [a] 1)
(f [a b] 2))

will give the following arity related errors:
