 [9050] changed {{{add_management_page}}}'s parent page from edit.php to
 import.php, which means that plugins using {{{add_management_page}}} now
 have different admin page URLs.  So for example, if your plugin
 description tries to link to its management page using {{{edit.php?page
 =my-plugin}}}, which has worked at least since WP 1.5, it now has a fatal
 error.

 My patch checks for a failed admin page request of the form
 {{{edit.php?page=[something]}}} and if {{{import.php?page=[something]}}}
 works, it redirects to that page.
