Description
You cannot use c['foo'] = newvalue on a RequestContext after creation as it gets stomped on by the different context processors logic in 1.8
>>> from django.template import Template, RequestContext
>>> from django.http import HttpRequest
>>> r = HttpRequest()
>>> c = RequestContext(r, {'a': 'AAA'})
>>> t = Template('a is <{{a}}> and b is <{{b}}>')
>>> c['b'] = 'BBB'
>>> t.render(c)
u'a is <AAA> and b is <>'
In the above note that 'b' is not rendered in the template.

Hi,
I can confirm that this issue exists and it wasn't present in 1.7 so I'm bumping the severity.
With the help of the attached test case, I bisected the issue to commit 37505b6397058bcc3460f23d48a7de9641cd6ef0.
Thanks.
