Looks like an acquisition bug:

      obj.aq_inContextOf(context, 1) is recursively defined by:

	  True, if "obj.aq_base == context.aq_base"
	  or "container(obj) is not None"
	  and "container(obj).aq_inContextOf(context, 1)"

	  where "container(obj)" is "aq_parent(aq_inner(obj))"
	  which is the container containing "obj".

which is equivalent to (resolving the recursing):

      obj.aq_inContextOf(context, 1)
      iff for some (hierarchie) ancestor "a" of obj,
      "a.aq_base == context.aq_base".

Given this definition, you can check which implementation
is wrong and file a bug report.
