Presenting modal view controllers from UISplitViewController

[memmons]

I have a UISplitViewController. In the detail view, I have this:

FlipTransition *transition = [[FlipTransition alloc] init];
transition.transitionType = FlipTransitionLeft;
[[HMGLTransitionManager sharedTransitionManager] setTransition:transition]; 
[[HMGLTransitionManager sharedTransitionManager] presentModalViewController:controller onViewController:self];
[transition release];

On modal view dismissal I have this:

FlipTransition *transition = [[FlipTransition alloc] init];
transition.transitionType = FlipTransitionRight;
[[HMGLTransitionManager sharedTransitionManager] setTransition:transition];     
[[HMGLTransitionManager sharedTransitionManager] dismissModalViewController:controller];
[transition release];

This does not work. Inside -dismissModalViewController: the following code causes the issue:

self.currentController = [modalViewController presentingViewController];

Instead of returning the controller which actually presented the view, it returns the UISplitViewController instead. -- this appears to be a bug in iOS5 . I've filed a radar -- #10255196.
