you can only read POST data once, so once it's slurped from the main 
request it's gone unless you store it someplace.  for it to show up in 
the internal redirect (outside of your object) you'd have to follow 
the example of changing a POST to a GET and stuffing the POST data in 
the query string (using something similar to recipe 3.18 and/or the 
example in the Guide).

so, it sounds like your object is bleeding data over from the main 
request into the redirect.

it shouldn't be there.  try reading from $r->content and $r->args in 
the redirect and see what you find.

setting $r->args in the main request won't bleed over either.  I went 
through the code for ap_internal_redirect yesterday and it definitely 
takes the query string from the passed in URI.
