Comment (by DJPaul):

 This seems to be caused by the call to validate_file_to_edit() in theme-
 editor.php. The logic when setting $file assumes that the theme root
 directory is always two levels up.

 On a clean debug install, $file looks like:
 {{{
 /Users/paul/Sites/example.com/wp-
 content/plugins/buddypress/Users/paul/Sites/example.com/wp-
 content/themes/test/functions.php
 }}}
