Shell allows me to escape back-tick:
$ echo "/var/log/syslog -C 8 -a 'kill -HUP \`cat /var/run/syslog.pid\`'"
/var/log/syslog -C 8 -a 'kill -HUP `cat /var/run/syslog.pid`'
puppet does like them:
$string="/var/log/syslog -C 8 -a 'kill -HUP \`cat /var/run/syslog.pid\`'"
exec{'echo string':

I passed the single quotes bump, thank you, now I stuck on back ticks,
puppet actually calls the script it and doesn't allow me to escape ` symbol
I need this for Solaris logadm.conf, which is a very unusual config file,
since logadm modifies it during each run.
I am using the same technique Pup

Try this:
command => "echo \"I want to see ${string}\"",
i.e. send a double quoted string containing single quotes to the echo
command rather than a single quoted string containing single quotes.
