 Attachment:   http://drupal.org/files/issues/node_add_menu_security.patch (949 bytes)

node/add lists out all modules on the site that the user has permission
to create.  This list should additionally check that the node/add/$type
menu path is accessible, otherwise, the page generates dead links to
these inaccessible paths.
I've attached a patch that adds this check to the node_add function
when no $type is specified.
