Or use \bidi@newrobustcmd:
\bidi@newrobustcmd*{\ArabicScript}[1]{\RL{\@Latinfalse\ArabicFont #1}}

We have been; perhaps relevant is the fact that we're typesetting small amounts
of text in various right-to-left scripts in the middle of a bunch of

Your definition is fragile but a robust macro is needed inside

Ah, thanks, I'll try that!

My definition
Not sure if this is the appropriate place to say this, but: I seem to
have found a problematic interaction (aka bug?) between the bidi package
and the amstext package.
Here's a minimal example:
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\usepackage{biblatex}
Not a bug. bidi package has a boolean \if@Latin. The boolean should be set
in higher level packages (like polyglossia) to true for non-RTL scripts and
false for RTL scripts. Its initial value is false so that explains the
behaviour.
Therefore
\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{amstext}

One usually defines an environment like:
\newfontfamily\arabicfont[ExternalLocation,Script=Arabic]{amiri-regular}
\newenvironment{arabtext}{\begin{RTL}\@Latinfalse\arabicfont}{\end{RTL}
or if you are
