fatal error get_page_permastruct()

This happens because plugins_loaded fires before the global variable $wp_rewrite exists.

From wp-settings.php:

// Load active plugins.
foreach ( wp_get_active_and_valid_plugins() as $plugin )
    include_once( $plugin );
unset( $plugin );

// Load pluggable functions.
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/pluggable.php' );
require( ABSPATH . WPINC . '/pluggable-deprecated.php' );

// Set internal encoding.
wp_set_internal_encoding();

// Run wp_cache_postload() if object cache is enabled and the function exists.
if ( WP_CACHE && function_exists( 'wp_cache_postload' ) )
    wp_cache_postload();

do_action( 'plugins_loaded' );

// Define constants which affect functionality if not already defined.
wp_functionality_constants( );

// Add magic quotes and set up $_REQUEST ( $_GET + $_POST )
wp_magic_quotes();

do_action( 'sanitize_comment_cookies' );

/**
 * WordPress Query object
 * @global object $wp_the_query
 * @since 2.0.0
 */
$wp_the_query = new WP_Query();

/**
 * Holds the reference to @see $wp_the_query
 * Use this global for WordPress queries
 * @global object $wp_query
 * @since 1.5.0
 */
$wp_query =& $wp_the_query;

/**
 * Holds the WordPress Rewrite object for creating pretty URLs
 * @global object $wp_rewrite
 * @since 1.5.0
 */
$GLOBALS['wp_rewrite'] = new WP_Rewrite();

Solution: Hook into wp_loaded, not plugins_loaded.
