Bug #3748: group membership problem

My user accounts are kept in LDAP. On one puppet-managed host, I want to make
some of those LDAP-based users members of a host-local group. I gave the
following a shot:
<pre>
user { "tom":
groups => "somegroup",
}
user { "dick":
groups => "somegroup",
}
user { "harry":
groups => "somegroup",
}
</pre>
Now when I run this the first time, it did just exactly what I wanted by adding
these users to the group in /etc/group. However, every time puppet runs again,
it tries to repeat the process. I think this is because when it tests the
current group membership, the groups are listed in a different order -- even
though the current set and the desired set are identical. For example, on
successive runs I see the following logged:
<pre>
notice: //mymodule/User[tom]/groups: groups changed
'wheel,somegroup,wheel,admin' to 'admin,somegroup,pooch,wheel'
</pre>
I suppose the fault may not be the ordering, but instead with the fact that
'wheel' appears twice in the current membership. I dunno, but it keeps the
logs really busy with these false changes.
