Comment (by Mr Pete):

 [How do you enable Wiki Formatting? I can't get bullets to work...]

 End of current debug pass:

 * add_cap() appears to work ok in php4 and php5

 * However, by the time get_role_caps() is called, $role->capabilities is
 an empty array in php4 but ok in php5

 Feel free to pick this up, anyone!

 Debug hints:

 * Create a temp database, have phpMyAdmin open to quickly select all
 tables and drop... to reset before each debug run

 * Have httpd.conf open to swap between php4/5 as needed

 * A debug pass is simple: http://localhost/wp/wp-admin/install.php asks
 for blog name, email. Click install, you've got your debug result
 (depending on your trace tools)

 (I'm using my WP Tuner tools, w/ a couple of minor mods to function during
 install)
