Comment:

 Any idea about this?  I've encountered something similar.

 I'm trying to populate a metabox dropdown with the titles of a custom post
 type.
 The post which will hold this data is also a custom post type.

 It works fine not using wp_query and hard coding the options, but when I
 use wp_query, there are issues in saving.  It populates the dropdown, but
 the permalink is changed and the dropdown is reset/cannot be saved.  It
 also affects the title sometimes.
