Bug #20121: SLES service acts different than RedHat

----------------------------------------
On Puppet 2.7.19, when trying to manage a non-existant service in
RedHat/CentOS, puppet compiles without issue. When you use the exact same
manifest for SLES (currently testing x64 SLES 11.1), you get an error that the
service doesn't exist.
Manifest:
<pre>
service { 'foo':
ensure => 'false',
enable => false,
}
</pre>
On CentOS 6.3, with --debug:
<pre>
debug: Service[foo](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service foo status'
debug: Puppet::Type::Service::ProviderRedhat: Executing '/sbin/chkconfig foo'
notice: Finished catalog run in 5.04 seconds
</pre>
On SLES 11.1:
<pre>
debug: Service[foo](provider=redhat): Executing '/sbin/service foo status'
debug: Puppet::Type::Service::ProviderRedhat: Executing '/sbin/chkconfig foo'
debug: Puppet::Type::Service::ProviderRedhat: Executing '/sbin/chkconfig foo
off'
err: /Stage[main]/Cron/Service[foo]/enable: change from true to false failed:
Could not disable foo:
notice: Finished catalog run in 1.80 seconds
</pre>
Looks like trying to call the service off is the failure. Ideally would prefer
a non-existing service to be assumed to be off, as the centos machine simulates.
