Comment (by DrewAPicture):

 > Can you give the steps you took to reproduce?

 Yes, sorry.

 *Running TwentyEleven, added two default widgets (Links and Meta)

 *Activated TwentyTen, checked Widgets -> All sidebars are empty.

 *Reactivated TwentyEleven, 2 widgets still in sidebar.

 I also tried this with simple text widgets similarly to ocean90, with the
 same results.
