Issue #11584 has been reported by Trevor Vaughan.
----------------------------------------
Bug #11584: Nested defines using higher level variables should fail to compile
instead of throwing a scope warning.

Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.6
Keywords:
Branch:
In pre-2.6 versions of Puppet, the following code worked:
<pre>
define test1::def1 (
$var1 = 'foo',
$var2 = 'bar'
) {
test2::def2 { 'test':
var3 => $var1
}
}
define test2::def2 (
$var3
) {
notify { "Var1 is $var1": }
notify { "Var2 is $var2": }
notify { "Var3 is $var3": }
}
test1::def1 { 'test': }
</pre>
However, Puppet >= 2.6 gives a scope warning on the $var1 and $var2 variables
being used in test2::def2.
Since there is no way to know the calling scope from within the Puppet code,
this should be a compile failure instead of a scope warning.
