Re: [Nmh-workers] global mhn.defaults being ignored

I've worked out what's doing it, but I'm not sure why this is written
the way it is.

The utility routine etcpath() in config/config.c has this near the
beginning:

#ifdef MHRC
    context_read();
#endif

context_read() reconstructs all the profile/context info starting from
nothing again

Two more details. Firstly, I forgot to say the bug is with 1.2-RC1. :)

Secondly, I've compared with the source from 1.0.4, and etcpath() in that
version has this context_read() too. What appears to have changed is
context_read() itself, which means that the potential for this problem
has always been there, but didn't come out until recently.

Cheers,
