    Description

      The `registry_key` auto-require functionality doesn't appear to work with `->`
      style relationships when `ensure => absent`. This results in a circular dependency:

          Registry_key { ensure => absent }
      		 
          registry_key { '#{keypath}\\SubKey1': }
      		 
          -> registry_key { '#{keypath}\\SubKeyToPurge': }
      		 
          -> registry_key { '#{keypath}': }

      But this does not:

          registry_key { '#{keypath}\\SubKey1': }
      		 
          registry_key { '#{keypath}\\SubKeyToPurge': }
      		 
          registry_key { '#{keypath}':
      		 
            require => Registry_key['#{keypath}\\SubKeyToPurge', '#{keypath}\\SubKey1'],
      		 
          }
