Comment (by apedog):

 Case in point:

 A database was created before custom post types existed, has the following
 hierarchical pages published: {{{recipes}}} and {{{recipes/chocolate-
 cake}}}
 At a later point a {{{Recipe}}} custom post type was registered with
 archive/front slug {{{'recipes'}}} and used for all new recipes. However
 the old pages were not converted to the new custom post types, and are
 still regular WP pages.

 As it stands, the published page {{{recipes/chocolate-cake}}} cannot be
 reached, neither through the permalink nor using {{{?p=123}}} notation.
 Instead returning a 404 page.
