Yes, to clarify, "possible bug with sudo being used when I don't expect it".

I deleted everything but the code needed to demonstrate the (possible) bug.

That code, when run - as is, demonstrates the problem.

It is part of a larger effort to create an Ansible config to provision a 
Vagrant box, install a couple of packages, and check out a couple of 
projects from github R/W.

The reason I don't want to hard code the vagrant username is that I want to 
use the playbooks to be independent of Vagrant, I want to reuse it on 
Amazon, Linode, etc.

The even larger goal is to create and share a couple of useful roles.
