Comment(by bforchhammer):

 `add_submenu_page( $parent, $page_title, $menu_title, $access_level,
 $file, $function = '' )`

 If `$file` is set to `__FILE__` in a plugin then the `$file` parameter
 gets cleaned up, and the absolute path to the file converted to a relative
 one (relative to `WP_PLUGIN_DIR`).

 If the same thing is done in a theme's `functions.php` then the absolute
 path is ''not'' converted to a relative path!

 I think the example in Codex does not recommend the use of `__FILE__`
 anymore but there are probably still many themes out there using it.
