 If a WordPress install is set to "Front page displays ... Your latest
 post", then some funky conditional tags are set. Of interest here are:

 {{{ ["is_home"]=> bool(true) }}}
 Sure, makes sense.

 {{{ ["is_post_type_archive"]=> bool(false) }}}
 Erm, what? Isn't this the post type archive for the posts post type?

 {{{ ["is_archive"]=> bool(false) }}}
 Isn't this also an archive?

 This means is_post_type_archive( 'post' ); doesn't work anywhere.

 I also attempted creating a "posts page" for blog posts, and got the same
 results.
