Bug #15035: undesirable stderr output for interfaces that disappear during run

I'm running a server that has a number of people connecting and disconnecting 
using pptp. This creates ppp interfaces and destroys them, on a regular basis. 
So much so that when puppet runs, I get this:

<pre>
Device "ppp3" does not exist.
ppp3: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Device "ppp3" does not exist.
ppp3: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Device "ppp3" does not exist.
ppp3: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Device "ppp2" does not exist.
ppp2: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Device "ppp3" does not exist.
ppp3: error fetching interface information: Device not found
Device "ppp3" does not exist.
ppp3: error fetching interface information: Device not found
</pre>

I suspect this is because a list of the devices is created and then interface 
information is gathered, but by the time the interface information is polled, 
those interfaces have been destroyed.

Can we just redirect the stderr of those to /dev/null?
