Bug #17371: Setting owner, group, mode for files specified in puppet.conf no 
longer seems to work

It seems that setting owner, group and mode for files in puppet.conf by using 
the following method, as explained in the configuration guide, no longer works 
in Puppet 3.0 (using Puppet 3.0.1 here on Ubuntu 12.04):

    /etc/puppet/puppet.conf:

    [master]
    ...
    autosign = /etc/puppet/autosign.conf { owner = puppet, group = puppet, mode 
= 0664 }

The settings specified in the curly braces do not get applied to the file. 

Instead, after changing the mode manually (`chmod 0664 
/etc/puppet/autosign.conf`) it is reset to 0644 after a request to the 
puppetmaster comes in. Interestingly it seems that when manually changing the 
owner of the file it stays changed, even after a request comes in that triggers 
the manually changed mode to be reset.

And as nfagerlund observed on IRC it seems that specifying an owner keeps the 
mode setting from working. Setting a mode alone, i.e. `autosign = 
/etc/puppet/autosign.conf { mode = 0664 }` works.
