Jira (PUP-9345) Resource defaults are no longer evaluation-order independent

Title: Message Title

Steve Traylen created an issue

*Puppet Version: 6.0.4
*Puppet Server Version: n/a
*OS Name/Version: CentOS 7.

From the docs:

Resource defaults are evaluation-order independent — that is, a default affects resource declarations written both above and below it.

This is no longer the case since release 4.10.5.

Desired Behavior:

puppet apply the following manifest:

file{'/tmp/junk.txt':

  ensure => present,

  content => "junk\n",

File{

   mode => '0777',

This should result in a file with ownership '0777'.

Running with puppet 4.9.4:

Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/File[/tmp/file.txt]/ensure: defined content as '{md5}477fbe8ae54fcb5effa415227ec05cb4'

Notice: Applied catalog in 0.07 seconds

-rwxrwxrwx. 1 straylen c3 13 Dec  6 20:36 /tmp/file.txt

Actual Behavior:

Running with current HEAD 6.0.4+

rm /tmp/file.txt && bundle exec  puppet apply ~/tmp/apply.pp && ls -l /tmp/file.txt

Notice: Compiled catalog for aiadm83.cern.ch in environment production in 0.05 seconds

Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/File[/tmp/file.txt]/ensure: defined content as '{md5}477fbe8ae54fcb5effa415227ec05cb4'

Notice: Applied catalog in 0.32 seconds

-rw-r--r--. 1 straylen c3 13 Dec  6 20:35 /tmp/file.txt

The file is not '0777' as the defaults were never applied.

Running a git bisect the patch that introduced this behaviour is

Note the same behaviour is observed in both a simple manifest like above or if
global default parameters are attempted via the site.pp file.
