And this is even shorter, plus there's one less variable being defined:
jQuery.fn.pluginMethod = function(settings) {
settings = jQuery.extend({
// stuff....
}, settings);
};
As noted previously - make sure that you use jQuery.extend() instead
of $.extend().

Having to do that is no longer needed in SVN - I added a catch to see
if a null or undefined value was being passed in and handled it
gracefully.
