Comment (by bobbingwide):

 '''Workaround'''
 The above fix can be implemented as a workaround.

 Create a filter function for "user_has_cap". In that filter function, when
 the capability being checked for is that which you have defined ( e.g.
 "edit_oik_sites"), add the following logic.


 {{{
 global $pagenow;
 if ( $pagenow == "edit.php" && isset( $_REQUEST['post_type'] ) ) {
         $pagenow .= '?post_type=' . $_REQUEST['post_type' ];
 }
 }}}


 This will then allow the failing function ( user_can_access_admin_page() )
 to return true.
