I've been doing some work on why interface{} fails on a RHEL5.2 server, and so far I've done the below patch to fix most of the problems. I am having the trouble that a puppetd --test --trace run says that name is undefined now, but as you can see it's listed below. I've exhausted my debugging for the moment, I can't figure out what is going on as I don't understand the prefetching, but hopefully someone can proceed from the below.
