 $user = wp_get_current_user();

 var_dump($user->{'roles'});

 ... prints

 {}

 Works fine in the root site, but in the subsite, roles is blank.

 In the site console, all the role functionality works fine.   All plugins
 are disabled, and I've confirmed that the roles array is blank in a simple
 page template.
