Puppet users - Jul 2009 - Multiple default providers for service: init, base; using init

I have a bunch of CentOS machines. In the process of puppetizing one of them
I''m getting this warning (more complete debug info at the end):

warning: Found multiple default providers for service: init, base; using
init
info: /Service[gmond]: Provider init does not support features enableable;
not managing attribute enable

Given that all of my instances are running the same OS and should be
identical, and none of my other instances are exhibiting this problem,
something on this instance must be slightly different.

I''ve run the client in debug mode (see below) and the puppetmaster in
debug
mode, but haven''t seen anything that is causing this issue (like the
default
PATH, for example). How do I best go about figuring out what is going on and
fixing it?

This kind of issue is normally caused by a funky PATH, but it looks  
like your service providers are halting their loading early, so maybe  
you''ve got a provider there that''s not parsing correctly and
is
breaking the loading of the rest of the service providers.

I *think* that was a bug in an earlier version but is fixed in 0.24.8  
or so -- providers can''t break loading for other providers.
