site template plugin breaks switch_to_blog

Activating the site template plugin results in a malfunction in calls to switch_to_blog. The main site’s info is still being passed instead of the info for blog_id. Subsite listings often show up as the name and link of the primary/parent blog instead of children. For example, using Multisite User Management default site roles setting page displays all blogs with the same name, and using Diamond MultiSite Widgets bloglist widget causes the bloglist display on the site to say the main blog over and over (note that it displays normally on the backend).
