Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 Codex currently says that
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_single is_single()]
 checks if a single post of any post type except `'attachment'` and
 `'page'` is being displayed, and
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_page is_page()]
 specifically checks for pages.

 After [25182], it looks like `is_single()` would only return true for non-
 hierarchical post types, and `is_page()` would work for any hierarchical
 type. So we should either fix that or update Codex.
