Where the master is hosted in Apache / Passenger, as you stipulated, it is 
Passenger (on the server) that is responsible for managing puppetmaster 
instances.  The agent has nothign directly to do with it, but if a catalog 
request arrives at Apache / Passenger when there are no puppetmaster 
instances currently running, then I would indeed expect Passenger to spin 
one up to handle the request, and some number of future requests.
