At time of writing, this isn't feature complete (it doesn't yet generate anticlasses for package uninstalls, for example). But it'll install stuff :)
./configure --prefix=/opt/nodejs/0.4.8
make
make install DESTDIR=/tmp/workdir
Now use fpm to build a puppet module to install nodejs:
fpm -s dir -t puppet -n nodejs -v 0.4.8 -C /tmp/workdir opt/nodejs/0.4.8
"Created /home/jls/projects/fpm/nodejs"
Now use puppet to install it:
sudo puppet apply --modulepath . -e 'file { ["/opt/nodejs"]: ensure => directory} include nodejs::package'
Puppet run output:

Try deleting a file, and see what puppet does:
% sudo rm /opt/nodejs/0.4.8/lib/node/wafadmin/Utils.py
# Rerun puppet to fix it.
% sudo puppet apply --modulepath . -e 'file { ["/opt/nodejs"]: ensure => directory} include nodejs::package'
