Agreed, and therein may be the workaround that I couldn't come up with. Nevertheless, the observed value of $::environment differs from what the docs say it should be in the OP's case. The only plausible reason for Puppet to provide the $::environment variable at all is so that its value can influence catalog building, whether directly in manifests or by interpolation into hiera hierarchy definitions, or whatever. It's not reasonable to say the variable shouldn't be used according to its docs for its apparent intended purpose.
