There currently isn't a way.

----

Since this is the developer's list, I'll go into some details about what
would be required for it to work:

Currently pluginsync happens before any facts are returned to the system.
This makes it difficult to do anything based on OS version. I've had chats
about changing Puppet's communication a bit so it sends some core facts
(this might have a lot of overlap with things that could be trusted facts -
osfamily probably isn't going to change without requiring a new
certificate) before pluginsync so they can be used to determine the
environment during node classification; using them to do more precise
pluginsync also makes sense.

Then you need a way to determine which plugins to sync. I see three options
- have a way to query Facter for platform-specific criteria for external
facts, and send that to the master to be used in evaluating which facts to
sync
- have a hierarchy in external facts, so you can explicitly target facts at
certain classes of machines based on the core facts sent before pluginsync;
that might interact in useful ways with Facter's upcoming config file, but
would need some way in each module to also specify what facts are synced
where. Something simple might be syncing based on osfamily, so you'd have
<MODULEPATH>/<MODULE>/facts.d/windows
<MODULEPATH>/<MODULE>/facts.d/redhat
etc.
