Replace "an empty list" with "an empty list of key/value pairs", and "an empty
scalar" (no such thing, btw) with "a single key with an undefined value", and
it should be clearer.

<%args> must work this way, because otherwise this would never work:

<%args>
$foo => 17
</%args>
if (defined $foo) {
# do some foo stuff
}

# elsewhere

# does some foo stuff
<& mycomp, foo => 0 &>

# doesn't do some foo stuff
<& mycomp, foo => undef &>

hdp.
