Right, my is not needed on object definitions.  mh will process "$x = new
object_type" records special (e.g. moves them out of the loop code, creates
web page entries for them).

But we do also allow for "my $x = new object_type" so you can do on-the-fly
object creation.   I tried the testcase I posted testcase with a 'my' and it
worked fine also, so it must be something else.
