Bug #7444: Ability to load a server side function from a server side function
broken.

In 0.24.9, the preferred way of loading a server side function to be used
within another server side function was to do the following:
require File.join([File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__)), 'filename.rb'])
In 2.6.6, this does not work as Puppet attempts to load the file multiple times
and the puppet run will not continue due to a duplicate load attempting to
happen.
I've worked around this by doing the following, but it's definitely a hack:
begin
function_filename('%test_$string^')
rescue
require File.join([File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__)), 'filename.rb'])
end
In the called function, I just add something to return 'true' if that string is
passed. Massive hack, but I couldn't figure out another way to do it more
elegantly.
