Huh?  Both of you realize that I wrote

put "\newcount\errorcontextlines" *before* \documentclass ?

Why would it surprise you that this does not make a change "since
\documentclass is the first thing in the document"?  \documentclass _is_
suspected of causing the problem, and so the \newcount\errorcontextlines
would remove the possibility of \documentclass to mess with the setting
of the original \errorcontextlines.  For that, it has to come _before_
\documentclass.
