I am seeing the same thing.  On the puppet master, the http log shows:

 DEBUG Puppet::Network::HTTP::WEBrickREST is invoked.
[2010-02-11 18:51:13] xxx1076.xxxxxx.com - - [11/Feb/2010:18:51:13
PST] "GET /production/file_metadatas/modules/faban2/benchmarks?
&&links=manage&recurse=true HTTP/1.1" 400 45
[2010-02-11 18:51:13] - -> /production/file_metadatas/modules/faban2/
benchmarks?&&links=manage&recurse=true
[2010-02-11 18:51:13] DEBUG close: xx.xx.xx.xx:37585
[2010-02-11 18:51:13] DEBUG accept: xx.xx.xx.xx:37586


Notice that the URL twice has '' where you would expect to see
name=value parameters:

/production/file_metadatas/modules/faban2/benchmarks?
&&links=manage&recurse=true


Is this perhaps the nil value that puppet complains it can't call gsub
on?
