It probably has something to do with the fact that you are defining the
getter/setter statically on the class itself, where in the second example,
you are actually defining them at the instance level, which is what you
want.
In your first example, I'll bet if you just do MyClass.test = "blah" it
would give you your alert...
You probably just need to a) do your Class.create() first, and b) then apply
your getters/setters via the prototype object of the class function:
var MyClass = Class.create();
MyClass.prototype.__defineGetter__("test", someFunction);
...etc...
