After this change, the commandline worked

I see. You have obviously renamed 'mhonarc' to 'mhonarc.pl'. That
may have been useful when you run MHonArc from your Windows command
line, but unnecessary when running it via mhastart.pl. As you
noticed, mhastart.pl presupposes the original file name 'mhonarc',
so you could just have renamed it back to the original name.
Anyway, your fix is sufficient.

The above observation made me conclude that there is no reason to not
accept file extensions, so I changed that line in the original script
to:

    if ( $command =~ /^(?:mhonarc|mha-d)/ ) {

Thanks for calling my attention to it, Tim!
