Bug #10848: When is "class { foo: }" not equivalent to "include foo"?

If I have:
modules/
autofs/
manifests/
init.pp
virtcluster/
manifests/
autofs.pp
And in autofs/manifests/init.pp I have:
class autofs {
}
And in virtcluster/manifests/autofs.pp I have:
class virtcluster::autofs {
include autofs
}
This works as intended. However, if I replace `include` with a new-style class
directive:
class virtcluster::autofs {
class { autofs: }
}
This fails with a "duplicate definition" error:
Duplicate definition: Class[Virtcluster::Autofs] is already defined; cannot
redefined at ...
Is this expected? I thought that `class { foo: }` was supposed to be
equivalent to `include foo`, but obviously the semantics are different.
I'm using 2.7.6 right now, but I've seen this with earlier versions as well.
