I reattached the file, but it's working for me. Try putting return 'hi'; at various points in the BOLTFrssfeed function and see if you can't debug where the glitch is.
If it doesn't show up at all then somehow your plugin is not being enabled. Try putting the function on some other page like test.rss just to see if you are getting output. I don't know how to debug if I can't reproduce the error, on my end. Cheers, Dan P.S. Are you getting any php errors in your log?
