Description Remy Suen

If a context function is set on an ancestor and then a specific value is set on the parent, the child at the bottom does not get reinjected, it appears to ignore the parent's set.

This turned out to be a rather nasty problem: we weren't creating dependencies from the cached context functions to their names in context(s).

As a result, for instance, setting a different ICF was not propagated to cached version, or overriding ICF on child nodes.

Remy, thank you for providing a simple test case!
