Thanks for taking a look. I removed the redundant org-deadline-warning-days
definition, but it does not seem to change anything. The relevant bit of
config is now:

 org-agenda-custom-commands '(("c" "Context Next Tasks" tags-todo
			       (concat "SCHEDULED=\"\"+{"
				(mapconcat (quote car) my-org-context-tag-alist "\\|")
				"}|SCHEDULED<=\"<today>\"+{"
				(mapconcat (quote car) my-org-context-tag-alist "\\|") "}/NEXT")
			       ((org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (tag-up)))
				(org-agenda-overriding-header "Context Next Tasks"))
			       )
			      ("s" "Startup View"
			       ((agenda ""
				 ((org-agenda-time-grid nil) (org-deadline-warning-days 365)
				  (org-agenda-entry-types (quote (:deadline)))
				  (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote scheduled)) (org-agenda-ndays 1)
				  (org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled upcoming deadlines:"))
				 )
				(todo ""
				 (quote
				  (org-agenda-overriding-header "Unscheduled No Deadline TODO:"))
				 )
				)
			       )
			      ("o" "Context Next or Todo Tasks" tags-todo
			       (mapconcat (quote car) my-org-context-tag-alist "|")
			       ((org-agenda-skip-function
				 (quote (org-agenda-skip-entry-if (quote todo) (quote ("DONE")))))
				(org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (tag-up)))
				(org-agenda-overriding-header "Context Next or Todo Tasks"))
			       )
			      ("w" todo "WAITING"))



Cheers
