 If the logged in user is a super admin this returns true;

 {{{
 if (current_user_can('contributor')) echo 'current user is a contributor';
 }}}

 Normally it should return false as it does for administrator, author,
 editor and subscriber account types.

 I spotted this while working in my localhost Multisite install then
 figured it doesn't work in the live standalone version!
