This is usually a load order problem, usually caused by not  
explicitly loading the base class or something.

I just looked at the current code (which has been changed a bit) and  
it should work in the next release.

For now, can you check that file and make sure it's loading its base  
class ('puppet/parser/ast/resource').  If so...  I guess we have to  
find where else the class is mentioned, but I couldn't find anywhere  
else.

Apparently the current version always exits 0.  It probably won't if  
you use puppet instead of puppetmasterd, but I haven't verified that.
