Bug #2910: tidy failing to remove any matching files

I'm somehow unable to get tidy to work _at all_ -- here is what I'm specifying,
right inside a node definition in nodes.pp:
<pre>
tidy { tidy_tmp:
path => "/tmp/",
age => "7d",
backup => false,
matches => [ "jna*.tmp" ],
}
</pre>
The rest of my node definition, and everything else in nodes.pp more generally,
works fine -- but matching files are not being tidied.
I can confirm many matching files on the client host in question with:
<pre>
find /tmp -maxdepth 1 -name 'jna*.tmp' -atime +7 -print
</pre>
I've tried the following in turn, with no luck:
* removing the matches attribute altogether,
* removing the age attribute altogether,
* replacing the matches list with a simple string,
* removing the explicit path attribute and using "/tmp" as the name,
* and setting the type attribute to "mtime" instead of the default atime.
I'm out of ideas, no one on IRC had any other ideas, and so I now suspect a bug.
If I'm doing something foolish, however, I'd be grateful to know. Thanks.
