Issue #1527 has been updated by luke.

To be clear, the problem here is that you've got code to produce a fact value, 
and that code is somehow invalid, which is cause Facter to fail, which is in 
turn causing puppetd to fail.  Right?

In that case, there are two bugs -- one in Puppet (puppetd should be resilient 
to failures in Facter) and one in Facter (it should be resilient to broken 
facts).

Either way, though, it would be hard to have this kind of failure result in an 
automatic resyncing of the fact code, and, really, that wouldn't normally fix 
the problem -- it just pulled down broken code, and it's reasonable to assume 
that, seconds later, the code is still broken.

The only reasonable response here is to cache the facts locally and pass them 
back up again; or, with more recent versions, the server can use its cached 
facts for the client.

Bug #1527: puppet fails to run if store facts wont compile

It seems that if puppet has synced a fact which does not compile, puppet will 
not run.
fixing the fact on the puppet server does not solve the problem and one needs 
to delete the copied fact on the client to get factsync working again.

I would expect puppet to sync the fact again in a case of fact execution 
problem and not to exit
