Ok, using notify{}, the client now says:

Sep  9 17:13:38 hproxy10 puppet-agent[30537]: 0.25.5 on hproxy10.h.foo.com
Sep  9 17:13:38 hproxy10 puppet-agent[30537]:
(/Stage[main]/Puppet::Setup/Notify[0.25.5 on
hproxy10.h.foo.com]/message) defined 'message' as '0.25.5 on
hproxy10.h.foo.com'

I know I'll get slammed for asking, but where is the use of notify{}
in this manner documented? I didn't know you could do that. WHat does
notify do? As far as the docs are concerned, it's a resource type.

Interestingly, it returns 0.25.5...
