Bug #16511: EC2 code breaks facter on Solaris 8 and earlier

Branch:
Affected Facter version: 1.6.12-rc2
The following code in lib/facter/util/ec2.rb breaks various facts on versions
of Unix that do not support the arp -n option.
# Test if the host has an arp entry in its cache that matches the EC2 arp,
# which is normally +fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff+.
def has_ec2_arp?
mac_address = "fe:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff"
if Facter.value(:kernel) == 'windows'
arp_command = "arp -a"
mac_address.gsub!(":","-")
else
arp_command = "arp -an"
end
This results in failures like the following -
$ facter swapsize
arp: -an: unknown host
