Bug of Units-package in combination with DynamicModule

Hello,

the following DynamicModule loads the Units`-package:

Needs["Units`"];
DynamicModule[{a = 10}, {PopupMenu[Dynamic[a], {10, 20}], Dynamic[a]},
Initialization :> Needs["Units`"]]

After closing the notebook, quitting the kernel and re-opening the
notebook, the context is Units` not Global`, the context path
{"Units`", "System`"}. This phenomenon occured even after I
deactivated completely the `Private` section of the Units` package,
leaving only the public declarations !!

I found also interferences with my personal packages loaded in a
DynamicModule, where symbols from those were moved to the Units`-
context.

The problem apparently does not occur with other packages.

Best regards,
Hannes Kessler
