Bug #16380: Terrible error message when certificates don't validate

So I put together a simple Proof of Concept CA for a client and kept getting a
wacky error during puppet agent runs:
# puppet agent -t
info: Retrieving plugin
err: /File[/var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/lib]: Failed to generate additional
resources using 'eval_generate: undefined method `find' for nil:NilClass
info: Loading facts in /var/opt/lib/pe-puppet/lib/facter/home.rb
I tracked it down to the fact that I was lazy and copied certificates from the
puppet master rather than creating my own, and as such, the name didn't match
and it didn't validate. The error message should SAY THIS and not just print a
nonsensical error message because of a nil object being blindly passed around.
The run succeeds, btw. It just never gets the CRL.
