If you use __FILE__ in your call to register_activation_hook then it  
will not matter what the folder name is.

But yes it won't be called for updates.

Maybe we need a register_update_hook which could be called when  
WordPress detects a version change in a plugin.
This would need WordPress to store the version info for all active  
plugins though.
Maybe a feature for 2.4.
