Under normal circumstances (the default) the new portal type should be guided
by the default_workflow so after creation of a new object this object should be in 
private state.

If you use dcworkflow please go to the portal_workflow tool / Workflows tab 
and check if the new created type is associated with (Default) and Default is 
the default_workflow.
