If you go to the menu adminsitration and edit the "Create content" point to be expanded by default, anonymous users will be able to see a menu point "Create content" in the Navigation block.
If the anonymous user clicks on the link, he will get a page with the heading "Create content" and the content "No content types available."
If you change the expand-by-default option, nothing will change. But if you reset the "Create content" point in the menu adminsitration, anonymous users will not be able to see this menu item anymore.
I think anonymous users should not be able to see this item either way (if they haven't got the correct privileges).

I confirm this bug, with a fresh install of Drupal Head :

1/ go to "admin/build/menu" and clic on "edit" for "Create content"
2/ on this form, clic on submit (you don't have to change "Expanded", or anything else)

Anonymous user can see the "Create content" link.

3/ go to "admin/build/menu" and clic on "reset" for "Create content"

Anonymous user don't see the "Create content" link anymore.

Same problem in 4.7 (i suppose) : http://drupal.org/node/68263
