Comment:

 I think this is a case of incorrect usage. The OO plugin functions should
 do exactly what the procedural ones do - i.e., let wordpress handle it:

 {{{
 public function onActivation() {
         $role = get_role( 'administrator' );
         $role->add_cap( 'add_cap_oo' );
 }

 public function onDeactivation() {
         $role = get_role( 'administrator' );
         $role->remove_cap( 'add_cap_oo' );
 }
 }}}
