Issue #21601 has been updated by Charlie Sharpsteen.

Assignee changed from Charlie Sharpsteen to Laura Varga

Thanks for the info Laura. Looking at the source code for the autoloader, these 
error messages seem to suggest that the `Kernel` module was somehow reassigned 
to the value of `nil`. Which is... very odd. Would it be possible to get a log 
of this error when the Puppet master is running with the `--debug` and 
`--trace` flags?

This happened after an OS upgrade which also included ruby upgrade. A restart 
of the puppetmaster solved the problem.
