I don't think this is a bug. See below.

Consider this transcript:
>> o: make object! [
[ a: "fee"
[ b: "fie"
[ c: "foe"
[ d: "fum"
[ ]
(no fancy structures ;-)
>> print mold first o
[self a b c d]
That was a list of words bound in the context of o ...
>> print mold second o
[
make object! [
a: "fee"
b: "fie"
c: "foe"
d: "fum"
] "fee" "fie" "foe" "fum"]
...and those are their bindings in o (as I understand it). So the
make object!...
part is just the value of self in o .

Where the TWO values in the last response (block) are the values
corresponding to [self h] in o.
