Comment (by azaozz):

 @ocean90, @DrewAPicture that's strange. Since [18630] sidebars should be
 matched one to one so switching from 2011 to 2010 should keep them exactly
 the same as both themes have 5 sidebars. That's how it works for me too.

 Could you put some `var_dump()` in `retrieve_widgets()` and see what
 exactly is happening.
