Comment (by TimothyBlynJacobs):

 I'm not sure yet what may have caused this regression. However, I did want
 to note that that is improper use of the `read_post` capability. You
 ''must'' pass the post ID that you want to check the user has permission
 for as the second parameter to the function call.

 This would be the correct usage:

 {{{#!php
 current_user_can( 'read_post', $post->ID )
 }}}
