Thanks for the patch/bug report. The problem was actually that we were
prepending the new sidcotext to the ocontexts linked list too early, so
we were using the new sidcontext instead of the previous sidcontext when
determining the new index. This should be fixed in the git repo in
commit 6909d32b23822490ebde13683088bf8f80c59ef1.

Thanks!
