Thanks Ken, I think I may have been confused with the pre-2.7.8 puppet still being installed before this upgrade was pushed out. Once the later version was installed the manifest seemed to work right.
For instance the first opsview run on a server will complain about the missing config file but still work after all since it re-reads the configuration file when it's actually used, whereas it used to just fail on 2.6.x. I still ended up using polysh to do the initial "yum upgrade puppet" on all servers but hopefully that won't have to be repeated too much. For puppet upgrade itself - a possible, untested, work-around could be to Exec[] something which will restart the puppet agent if puppet was upgraded. Risky and ugly but might save someone from having to do this manually many servers. For now I guess you can ignore my request.
