Comment 6 for bug 454279

Well, 'my' is derived from 'I' and is closely related to it. Like 'his'/'he', 'its'/'it'.
It behaves as a determiner or adjective.
In some languages they chose to classify it as a pronoun. Even though it never behaves like one. But they just stretched the pronoun definition.

A bit of a controversy.
