I'm having trouble getting your PPA to work with the AMI images I've been using for testing (specifically the "official" ami-5936fa30). After adding the PPA using "sudo apt-add-repository ppa:gandelman-a/build-tests", facter_1.5.9-1ubuntu1 is still reported as the latest available.
However, as one of the original authors of the patch you pulled over, I can confirm that it is the correct fix for this problem.
