Bug #18109: Class namespace declaration appears to be dynamically scoped

Affected Puppet version: 2.7.19

Branch:
In the example below, the class declaration test generates an error
class role::test {
class { 'test': }
#include test
}
Duplicate declaration: Class[Role::Test] is already declared; cannot
redeclare at /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/role/manifests/test.pp:2
as it appears to be attempting to redeclare itself due to dynamic namespacing
in the class { 'test': } declaration.
the 'include test' line also doesn't do the 'right thing' because it declares
the role::test class, however include ::test does the right thing
The workaround is to declare class { '::test': } (or include ::test) , however
I wouldn't expect class declaration lookup to be dynamic as a default - I can
see that dynamic lookup would cause this to happen, but wonder if this
behaviour should be reviewed.
