C/C++ #include statements can, and often do, contain further nested 
#includes, so its quite possible that not all of these will be inside the 
#ifndef ... #endif brackets that should check for and skip multiple 
inclusions. 

Since, unlike a C/C++ #include statement, an import doesn't pull in any 
source code, Java can never have this sort of clash.
