I got this again during the refactoring of the oik-blocks/fields block. The line number in oik-blocks.php is quite different due to the refactoring.

[bobbingwide]

The pragmatic fix is to load the logic if it's missing.
eg in oik_blocks_check_server_func() add the following code.

if ( !function_exists( 'is_plugin_active') ) {
		require_once ABSPATH . 'wp-admin/includes/admin.php';
	}
