Yes. The 'require' function is a form of class declaration, functionally equivalent to 'include' + an automatic relationship. You therefore do have multiple declarations of class foo::baz: one in foo::bar and one in foo::bam. As long as the parameterized-style declaration is evaluated first, all is well, but otherwise you will get a duplicate declaration error. This general problem is one of my principal reasons for advising folks to not use parameterized-style class declarations, as I have done since parameterized classes were introduced. In Puppet 3 you can usefully create and use parameterized classes without using parameterized-style declarations by relying on automatic parameter binding through Hiera.
