Comment:

 This is the first time I've tested this problem with Version 3.4.1.  The
 two times that fatal errors occurred previously were with a 3.4 Release
 Candidate and 3.4 itself, though under different circumstances.

 I just completed testing all of the possibilities I could think of, and
 now only find one failure:  a version update in a network where the plugin
 is updated (of course) from the network admin panel and has been
 previously activated on only one of the networked sites, i.e. - has NOT
 been Network Activated.

 The error occurs when you display the Admin Plugins panel for the site
 where the previous version of the plugin was activated:  "The plugin
 jonradio-display-kitchen-sink/jonradio-kitchen-sink.php has been
 deactivated due to an error: Plugin file does not exist."

 As I say, I am no longer able to re-create this problem on a non-network
 install of WordPress.

 This problem appears repeatable, as I have had it occur twice in a row.
 I'm not sure if it matters, but I only tested this on the second site I
 added to the network, not the "original" site created automatically.
