Issue #13070 has been updated by eric sorenson.
This starts working again in 3.x, I did a reverse bisect (bad is good and good
is bad) and found I could make it work with just a one-line change that marks a
file loaded before hitting Kernel.load instead of afterwards:
<pre>
diff --git a/lib/puppet/util/autoload.rb b/lib/puppet/util/autoload.rb
index 8051d01..b6f7a5f 100644
--- a/lib/puppet/util/autoload.rb
+++ b/lib/puppet/util/autoload.rb
@@ -107,8 +107,8 @@ class Puppet::Util::Autoload
name = File.basename(file).chomp(".rb").intern
next if loaded?(name)
begin
- Kernel.require file
loaded(name, file)
+ Kernel.require file
rescue SystemExit,NoMemoryError
raise
rescue Exception => detail
</pre>
This seems like a more targeted, minimal fix than the one in Jeff's pull
request but the underlying issue is still pretty mysterious.
