This looks like you're storing the JSContextRef you receive when your callback
is called. That's incorrect as a given JSContextRef is only guaranteed to be
valid within the callback. All your functions should be from the same initial
JSGlobalContextRef you created when initialising your environment, and you
should just be using that GlobalContext rather than any per instance context.
You should also be protecting the function with JSValueProtect.
Hopefully this helps.
