Bug #16063: Parametrized classes overrides silently ignored

If I try to override a parameter in a parametrized class (not a puppet 
resource) from a child class, the override is ignored without issuing any error 
or warning.

<pre>
class A ( 
            $my_text = "Class A edited it"
        ) {        
    file {"/tmp/foo":
        content => $my_text,
        ensure  => file 
    }
}


class B {
    
    class { "A": my_text => "Class B edited it" }
}

class B::C () inherits B {
    
    Class["B"] {
        my_text => "Class C edited it"
    }
}    
</pre>

The expected content of /tm/foo should be "Edited by class C", but it is 
"Edited by class B".
I'm using puppet (master & agent) 2.7.18 on Debian Squeeze (from backports)
