Not compatible with Puppet 3.5.0

After updating to Puppet 3.5.0, I get this error message.

Error: Failed to apply catalog: Parameter proxy failed on Yumrepo[epel-testing]: Must be a valid URL at /etc/puppet/modules/epel/manifests/init.pp:24

This might be a regression in puppet, because the docs say that absent is acceptable, instead of a well formed URL. http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#yumrepo-attribute-proxy

As a workaround, I have commented out the "proxy" lines in the EPEL module in my installation, and that allows the puppet run to succeed.

I'm nearly certain it's a regression introduced in Puppet 3.5.
https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/3.5.0/lib/puppet/type/yumrepo.rb#L206

Here's a related issue already logged in the Puppet tracker:
https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-2162

So I'm going to close this issue now.
