I guess the file /var/run/vservers/NAME.ctx is missing.

If the ctx file is missing, it will set a new context. Why this file
is missing is behond me.

I changed something in 0.9 I think. Even if a vserver is not running, it tries
tu umoun /proc anyway. This was done because doing
vserver v1 enter
exit
do the mount and then leave the vserver not running.

Something is erasing the ctx file. Nothing in the vserver package
erase that file. It is created when the vserver is started and then
reused. It should be erased when we stop a vserver, but it is not
the case. The vserver script is smart enough to find out that a ctx
file point to a none running vserver.
