I had a theory that the blurb building was killing GIMP, so I modified the script to make the description a single line. It now works.
The reasoning for a multi-line description was to give valuable information in the Procedure Browser. Now the information is the single-line blurb, which is practically useless. :(( Why it worked in Ubuntu versus Windows is a mystery I leave to the developers. However, it illustrates why I never released the script to the repository. I cannot test scripts except on my machines and it worked up 'til Windows 2.4. Without broad testing, running a script is a crapshoot. The thought that my script would mysteriously hose someone's GIMP is a huge barrier to wide release.
