As Ingo Fischer observed, Puppet's current Ruby DSL is deprecated.  I think 
I remember reading that PL's effort to create a replacement has been 
abandoned.  As such, I would not advise basing any work on Ruby DSL.

Although the Ruby DSL provided direct access to Ruby for defining 
manifests, there were always features of Puppet's native DSL that the Ruby 
DSL did not provide.  In any case, class inheritance is a rather 
special-purpose tool in Puppet (as was Ruby DSL), so although you may have 
a good use case for it yourself, I don't think it's accurate to call 
inheritance "a pretty pertinent feature for anyone looking to take 
advantage of the ruby DSL."

If you tell us about what you're trying to do then perhaps we can suggest 
an alternative.
