Comment:

 Somewhere along the line this bug crept back in. If the script dies in the
 activate_$plugin hook, the plugin is activated and the message to the user
 is that a function has already been defined.

 The fix is simple: run the activate_$plugin hook BEFORE saving the new
 active_plugins array.
