I think you want something like:
vars:
any::
'crontab' string => 'foo'; # Set default
redhat::
'crontab' string => 'bar';
suse::
'crontab' string => 'baz';
I don't think you need to bother with negation at all to deal with
this sort of OS-specific data.
You may need to set 'policy' to allow redefinition without a warning
(I forget off the top of my head).
Maybe I'm missing something though, the original message was really long. :-)
