 OK,

 here it is in two words:

 I install a fresh copy of WP 2.2. I let user register themselves for the
 blog. I make default users to be AUTHORS when they register.

 After one or two users register, ADMIN (me) can't write a post or a page
 as HIMSELF, only as one of the newly registered users...

 Workaround? Yes. After the first 1-2 users register and the bug happens,
 go to OPTIONS and change the role of ADMIN to be ADMINISTRATOR. He *is*
 already an administrator, but only *after* updating his profile as ADMIN
 you can start writing pages/posts as yourself...

 Happened to me more than once, so it should be a bug...

 Do you need PHP/MySQL versions?
