Comment(by dd32):

 Yes, An iframe is used for that single line of text.

 The reasoning is, That the status of the re-activation can only be known
 on a new page load, and/or if there is a Fatal PHP error. Loading it in an
 iframe allows for the status to be shown on the page, and if a error
 occurs, for the plugin not to be activated causing the WordPress install
 from being inaccessible.

 As for the scrollbars, I think they're supposed to be hidden, Or at least,
 they're not visible in most browsers i've tested with..

 It nearly looks like the inner content has a higher min-height than the
 height of the iframe..
