It depends, when you have a command which writes something into
contexts own auxiliary file context will make another run but when
you have a module like tikz which uses its own auxiliary file just
make another run with „context <filename>”.

The problem here is the content of tikz auxiliary file, when I process
your document with MkII it contains

\pgfsyspdfmark {pgfid1}{5006382}{46179011}
\pgfsyspdfmark {pgfid2}{10902017}{46179011}
\pgfsyspdfmark {pgfid3}{4661756}{45230922}

but with MkIV i get the following result:

\gdef \pgf@sys@pdf@mark@pos@pgfid1 {\pgf@x =0sp\pgf@y =0sp}
\gdef \pgf@sys@pdf@mark@pos@pgfid2 {\pgf@x =0sp\pgf@y =0sp}
\gdef \pgf@sys@pdf@mark@pos@pgfid3 {\pgf@x =0sp\pgf@y =0sp}

There is something wrong with the way tikz saves the coordinates
of the nodes in MkIV.
