Also you forgot to extend the $nofollow and $target options to the tag links at the top.
That information doesn’t go in the PHP file – it goes in the README (and, as far as I know, that’s present).
I’ll correct the issue with the tag links.

Then perhaps it was missing the License: tag in the header. In any case, it told me the header was bad when I tried to activate it and would not let me activate it until I added:
Stable tag: 1.1.1
Tested up to: 3.1.1
License: GPLv2
to the header comment. WordPress says you need:
/*
Plugin Name: Name Of The Plugin
Plugin URI: http://URI_Of_Page_Describing_Plugin_and_Updates
Description: A brief description of the Plugin.
Version: The Plugin's Version Number, e.g.: 1.0
Author: Name Of The Plugin Author
Author URI: http://URI_Of_The_Plugin_Author
License: A "Slug" license name e.g. GPL2
*/
at a minimum in the PHP file.
Ok, that explains it better. I’ve come across this behaviour before. It’s one of two things – either the copy in the archive is corrupt (I’ll update a revised version in a minute to illiminate this). Alternatively, when doing automatic updates it can attempt to active the wrong file.
On my own test site I hadn’t updated the plugin myself, so used the automatic updater. Sure enough I got a failure upon activation. However, it was pointing to the markdown.php file in the sub-folder. This isn’t the right plugin file!
Attempting to activate the updated plugin via the plugin menu though, worked.
