update -- it only seems to happen if you use the dropdown in the "Quick Edit" screen

MIchael,
I used the Custom Post Type UI plugin, v 0.5.2
Here is the register_post_type code it generated:
register_post_type('artists', array( 'label' => 'Artists','public' => true,'show_ui' => true,'capability_type' => 'post','hierarchical' => false,'rewrite' => array('slug' => ''),'query_var' => true,'supports' => array('title','editor','excerpt','custom-fields','comments','thumbnail',)) );
I did _not_ paste this code into functions.php -- could that be the problem?

Stephen,
This same problem has been reported in [1] and [2] but can't be duplicated.
Are you using a plugin to add the custom post type and if so what plugin is
it?
Or are you using register_post_type in your theme's functions.php file? If
so please provide that code.
Note - Using a custom post type of 'book', I just changed a book to Draft,
then republished and at both stages the post_type in the database remained
book. I'm using default permalinks with no plugins activated.
