Incomplete pollination? No beans in spaces that were meant for beans?
Curling up isn't a problem, but if it was very pronounced I wonder if it was another effect of pest damage? No idea about pests. The only things that I have to worry about are red spider and whitefly, and that's because I grow them in the greenhouse to keep them away from the slugs. I wouldn't expect either to be a problem outside.
