Ugh.

I've got a couple problems like that myself, and I had to approach them the 
way Lyndon did-- use a script (m4 template, really) to spit out a file, the 
import the file.  Cfengine really isn't a procedural language, so there isn't 
a very tidy way to handle that.

My kingdom for a cfengine version of GNU Make's $(patsubst,,) function!
