Um, first I see no relation between context_foil() and the MHCONTEXT and
MH environment variables.

And I was asking about was the cases where it is called with a NULL
argument and sets defpath and context.  You're bringing up one of the
few cases where it is called with a non-NULL argument so that's not what
I was asking about.
