Comment:

 !WordPress widgets are going to get an overhaul in 2.9 and hopefully they
 would have corrected the cause of this.

 The reason for this is that the sidebar widget option is not being
 updated. Really it could be considered the fault of the plugin author for
 not removing their widget, but !WordPress should also consider sidebars
 that no longer exist and widgets that no longer exist.
