It's an off-by-one error.  This is the compiled bytecode for your first
example:

    0:  source line 2
        push Global Variable[0] = ContextPart
    2:  send special message #thisContext
    4:  send selector 1, 0 args = #printNl
    6:  source line 2
        pop stack top
    8:  push 1
        return stack top

The instruction pointer when sending #printNl is already 6.  The call to
#currentLineInFile prints erroneously takes the "source line" bytecode at
address 6 into account, and prints 2+2-1 = 3.

This patch fixes it:

diff --git a/kernel/ContextPart.st b/kernel/ContextPart.st

Thanks for reporting it!
