Feature #1848: support multi-line cron environment variables
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1848

It seemed to be within the puppet way of doing things to try and specify two 
cron environment variables, that I expected to be on multiple lines as follows:

<pre>
cron { 
    "sa-update_openprotect":
      command => "sa-update --gpgkeyfile /etc/spamassassin/sa-update_gpgkeys 
--channelfile /etc/spamassassin/sa-update_channels && sa-compile &>/dev/null && 
/etc/init.d/spamassassin restart &>/dev/null",
      environment => '["TMPDIR=/var/tmp", "TMP=/var/tmp"]',
      user    => root,
      hour    => 2,
      minute  => 0;
}
</pre>

But that doesn't work, instead you need to do something not as intuitive:

<pre>
      environment => "TMPDIR=/var/tmp\nTMP=/var/tmp",
</pre>

Would be cool if puppet crontypes supported the other way of doing this, as 
this seemed like the cleaner, "puppet" way of doing it.
