Seems so, the below patch allows puppet master to bootstrap. Thanks
for the reference. At first glance I wonder if a slight variance is
required for OpenBSD since the useradd(8) utility doesn't support the
-m/-M options for min/max age; it supports these options instead for
account and password expiration:
-e expiry-time
Sets the default time at which new accounts will expire. It
should be entered in the form ``month day year'', where month is
the month name (the first three characters are sufficient), day
is the day of the month, and year is the year. Time in seconds
since the Epoch (UTC) is also valid. A value of 0 can be used to
disable this feature.
-f inactive-time
Sets the time at which passwords of new accounts will expire.
Also see the -e option above.
These don't seem like complementary options to me (complementary to
minimum/maximum password age, anyway). OpenBSD's useradd(8) is derived
from NetBSD's so the same situation is likely to occur there.

Is a slightly modified provider needed?
