New description:

 When registering a post type as a submenu of a top level menu, the submenu
 item does not get highlighted correctly when adding a new item to the post
 type.

 Code to reproduce:

 {{{
 add_action ('init', 'cptest');
 function cptest ()
 {
         $args = array
         (
                 'labels' => array
                 (
                         'name' => 'FooBars',
                         'singular_name' => 'FooBar',
                 ),
                 'public' => false,
                 'show_ui' => true,
                 'show_in_menu' => 'users.php',
         );

         register_post_type ('foobar', $args);
 }

 }}}

 1. Click ''Users -> FooBars''
 2. In the newly opened admin page, click ''Add New'' (add new FooBar)
 3. The ''All Users'' submenu item gets highlighted, instead of ''FooBars''

 This is very similar to ticket #24137, and is fixed by patch
 ''24137.2.patch'' by ''markjaquith'', attached to that ticket and
 replicated as attachment to this ticket.
