Building a rpm of the facter 1.5.5rc1, using the EPEL 1.5.4 spec file with a small mod or two (removing the permissions and not installing the non existance COPYING file) and installing it fixes the problem in my test environment as well, am going to fan it out today and confirm its all good.
for the sake of completeness, running it in no deamonize mode doesn't change anything, after startup it just sits there.
