Can confirm too, although I don't know how to reproduce. If more infos about my config are needed, please tell me (e.g. sql tables)

Replying to thee17:

I believe this is another occurrence of this bug popping back up: http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2818

The fix for that ticket (creating another admin, changing original admin to an editor, saving and then changing admin back to an administrator) should work. But the wp_user_level missing for admin seems to be the root cause again.
