Just added a comment about why we're doing what we're doing.

The any? method doesn't exist for 1.9.x, this converts a string to a single
element array to work around the problem.

I've seen a number of times the following error displayed to the end
user:
validate_re(): "" does not match "^true$|^false$" at /p/t/f.pp:40
This is an absolutely horrific error message. I'm to blame for it.
Users stumble over this quite often and they shouldn't have to go read
the code to sort out what's happening.
This patch makes an effort to fix the problem by adding a third,
optional, argument to validate_re(). This third argument will be the
message thrown back in the exception which will be displayed to the end
user.
This sets the stage for nicer error messages coming from modules we
write.
This patch is backwards compatible but is a new feature.

Author email addresses were included in the doc strings for some (but not all)
stdlib functions. This commit removes them in the interest of consistency.

This commit makes several minor consistency and wording edits to the doc
strings of the stdlib functions.

While developing Puppet Modules with class parameters, data from the
user should be validated as per the Style Guide. Puppet should fail
early and hard in the situation of invalid data being passed into the
module.
This function provides a more concise method to the alternative of using
if statements in the Puppet manifests.
