In the default Puppet MSI install, neither the ruby-augeas bindings nor
augeas native libraries are provided, so the provider is not suitable out
of the box. However, you may be able to compile augeas for windows and
install the ruby-augeas gem... I haven't done that myself, so I'm not sure
how well that'll work out.
