Comment:

 @frederic-pilon Thanks for reporting this, but unfortunately your ticket
 contains too little information to be evaluated properly.

 It should not be possible for `$role_data['capabilities']` to not exist,
 though it could be an empty array, so something is interfering.

 This needs a proper backtrace and reproduction scenario before it can be
 decided what the correct solution should be. Your patch may fix the
 immediate symptom of the issue, but not the actual problem, so is likely
 the wrong solution.
