@zaphod42 I saw you just merged this, so maybe you and @pcarlisle talked through this on HC or IRC?  Basically, I don't think this code has anything to do with `Puppet::Parser::Resource`.  Put another way, this line of code intends to call `Puppet::Resource`'s `.to_ral`.  So np I think.

But yes, it makes my head hurt too, so maybe I'm still missing something.
