Comment(by nacin):

 That I can't reproduce. The administrator sees an author box as long as
 there is at least one other user a contributor or higher.

 Here's the code in 3.0.x from wp-admin/includes/template. Going to need
 some help if we're going to fix this --- where is it failing for you?
 {{{
         if ( post_type_supports( $screen->post_type, 'author' ) ) :
                 $authors = get_editable_user_ids( get_current_user_id(),
 true, $screen->post_type ); // TODO: ROLE SYSTEM
                 $authors_dropdown = '';
                 if ( $authors && count( $authors ) > 1 ) :
                         $users_opt = array('include' => $authors, 'name'
 => 'post_author', 'class'=> 'authors', 'multi' => 1, 'echo' => 0);
                         if ( $bulk )
                                 $users_opt['show_option_none'] =
 __('— No Change —');
                         $authors_dropdown  = '<label>';
                         $authors_dropdown .= '<span class="title">' . __(
 'Author' ) . '</span>';
                         $authors_dropdown .= wp_dropdown_users( $users_opt
 );
                         $authors_dropdown .= '</label>';

                 endif; // authors
 }}}
