Alexandre, I had the same problem.  The root cause was that the "server"
directive in the client's puppet.conf did not match the hostname that
was used in the puppetmaster certificate.  Check your puppetmaster
certificate with "sudo puppetmaster -p <puppetmaster>" (where
<puppetmaster> is the hostname of the puppetmaster; check
/var/lib/puppet/ssl/certs/ if unsure), and look for the Subject line.
The "server" directive has to match the value of CN there.

That being said, that bug is terribly annoying and degrade the user
experience significantly.  Could it be possible to consider applying the
patch in question in the next SRU of puppet?  It looks pretty safe to
me.
