Puppet users - Jun 2013 - StartWait in Windows EXE Package Provider

I''m having some trouble getting a silent install of Firefox to run with
the
windows package provider. My manifest looks like this:
 
package { "Firefox Setup 21.0":
 ensure   => installed,
 source   => ''C:\\Files\\Firefox Setup 21.0.exe'',
 install_options => [''/S'']
}
When this is executed by ''puppet apply'', the following windows
command line
is executed:
 
cmd.exe /c start /w "C:\\Files\\Firefox Setup 21.0.exe" /S
 
If this didn''t have the ''/S'' parameter, it would
work, but with the ''/S''
parameter, it returns an "Incorrect function" error. According to some
blog
posts I have found (e.g. 
http://www.catonrug.net/2013/04/start-wait-quotes-invalid-switch.html ), 
this is a result of the "START" command believing that the
''/S'' switch is
intended for the "START" command, rather than passing it to the
Firefox
setup exe.
 
One way of resolving this is to add a "title" parameter to the START 
command, which makes it interpret the rest of the line as parameters.
 
First, am I missing something? Is anybody else using the EXE package 
provider and seeing this problem?
 
If this is a real problem, should I submit a bug and patch, or would 
someone else like to verify my assumptions?
 
Thanks!
Josh
