 We have a series of plugins using the same base class (different
 instantiations of course).   Adding our settings page to the
 Admin/Settings sidebar menu works fine up until 2.9.2, in 3.0 this no
 longer works.

 We are still trying to determine if it is a problem with
 add_options_page() or add_action('admin_menu','funcname').

 With a clean install of 2.9.2 and the same plugin codebase, both plugins
 appear on the sidebar menu.  With a clean install of 3.0, only the last
 plugin loaded appears on the sidebar menu.   Both plugins are activated
 but only ONE shows up and the options page can only be accessed for the
 one that shows up in the menu. De-activate either and the active one
 appears and work fine.

 What we know so far:

 - It appears that admin_init is called for each instantiated object that
 we are trying to setup.

 - The setting_page_<plugin-prefix-here> call only happens for the last
 object to have been loaded.

 I do have a development server I can provide access to, as well as a
 staging server on 2.9.2 if a bona-fide WordPress developer wants to dig
 around the code with us.   I can also provide our plugin code via git repo
 or will package it up into a .zip format if requested.

 In the meantime I'll try to find a fix & will provide more details as we
 go through our discovery process.
