Puppet users - Jan 2014 - overriding class parameters with 'undef'

Hello,

I apologize in advance if this question is redundant.

I'm using puppet version 2.7.11 (because that's what Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
has
to offer) and I'd like to override a class default parameter with
'undef'.
 For example, the puppetlabs 'apache' module (version 0.10.0) sets
'ensure
=> running' for service 'apache' by default.  I do not what
puppet to
attempt starting or stopping apache, so I'm trying the following (which 
does not work): 

  class {
    'apache': service_ensure => undef;
  }

The above gives me the default 'ensure => running' for the
'apache'
service.  Any idea how I can express 'ensure => undef' when declaring
the
apache class in my manifest?

Could suppose I could always hack the 'apache' module, but would prefer
not
to.

Thanks,
Jeffrey
