Bug #6824: Cannot manage account for user nfsnobody: "tried to get name field 
for silly id 4294967294"

I'd like to receive userdel suggestions for unmanaged users:

        resources { 'user':
                noop               => true,
                purge              => true,
                unless_system_user => true,
        }

On default CentOS install, there is single non-system user:

        nfsnobody:x:4294967294:4294967294:Anonymous NFS 
User:/var/lib/nfs:/sbin/nologin

which would, roughly, translate to:

        user {
                'nfsnobody': uid => 4294967294, gid => 4294967294;
        }

However, this triggers buggy warning:

[root@localhost puppet]# puppet agent --test --noop
info: Caching catalog for localhost.localdomain
info: Applying configuration version '1300966851'
err: Tried to get name field for silly id 4294967294
notice: /Stage[main]//Node[default]/User[nfsnobody]/gid: current_value 
4294967294, should be 4294967294 (noop)
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.42 seconds
[root@localhost puppet]#
