ok thanks, I reproduced the problem with the following below. If you 
change the String insertion order it works. I'll get this fixed over the 
weekend:
     @Test
     public void testQueryWithObject() throws Exception {
         String str = "" +
             "package org.drools.test  \n" +

             "import java.util.List\n" +
             "import java.util.ArrayList\n" +

             "global List list\n" +

             "dialect \"mvel\"\n" +
             "\n" +

             "import org.drools.integrationtests.BackwardChainingTest.Q\n" +
             "import org.drools.integrationtests.BackwardChainingTest.R\n" +
             "import 
org.drools.integrationtests.BackwardChainingTest.S\n" +

             "query object(Object o)\n" +
             "    o := Object() \n" +
             "end\n" +

             "rule collectObjects when\n" +
             "   String( this == 'go1' )\n" +
             "   object( o; )\n" +
             "then\n" +
             "   list.add( o );\n" +
             "end\n" +


             "rule init when\n" +
             "   String( this == 'init' )\n" +
             "then\n" +
             " insert( new Q(1) );\n " +
             " insert( new Q(5) );\n " +
             " insert( new Q(6) );\n " +
             " insert( new R(1) );\n " +
             " insert( new R(4) );\n " +
             " insert( new R(6) );\n " +
             " insert( new R(2) );\n " +
             " insert( new S(2) );\n " +
             " insert( new S(3) );\n " +
             " insert( new S(6) );\n " +
             "end\n" +
             "";

         KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = 
KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();
         kbuilder.add( ResourceFactory.newByteArrayResource( 
str.getBytes() ),
                           ResourceType.DRL );

         if ( kbuilder.hasErrors() ) {
             fail( kbuilder.getErrors().toString() );
         }

         KnowledgeBase kbase = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newKnowledgeBase();
         kbase.addKnowledgePackages( kbuilder.getKnowledgePackages() );

         kbase = SerializationHelper.serializeObject( kbase );

         StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = 
kbase.newStatefulKnowledgeSession();
         List<Integer> list = new ArrayList<Integer>();
         ksession.setGlobal( "list", list );

         ksession.insert( "go1" );
         ksession.fireAllRules();

         ksession.insert( "init" );
         ksession.fireAllRules();

         System.out.println( list );
     }
