Unless you are altering the registry, setting the status message won't
show up on the current page, since they are already pulled in by
template_preprocess_page (the first preprocess function). That means
the message set in your preprocess function won't show up until the
next page. Not sure if that's causing the problem or not, but it is
something to keep in mind.<br>

This does not address why you are seeing what you are seeing. Use a
debugger like xdebug to see what really is going on there.<br>
