Bug #19233: Embedding variables in regex when defining nodes is valid syntax, 
but not parsed correctly.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19233#change-83156

Author: Aaron Hicks
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: node
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 3.1.0
Keywords: regex node
Branch: 


Puppet does not permit passing a variable as a node name when defining a node, 
but Ruby-like regex is permitted. When a variable is embedded in a regex, the 
syntax is valid and Puppet does not reject the node definition, but the 
variable is not parsed correctly and will never match a node.

    $nodename = 'foo.local'
    
    node /#{foo.local}/ {
        # stuff
    }
