For what its worth Axel is describing exactly the problem my users had with 10.1.x and the December 2001 dev tools (which included a beta version of AppleScript). Including the fact that the problem was seen more often on faster machines.
That said, however, Chris and I discussed my submitted patch (hack really) for inclusion in 5.6.1r2 and deemed it unnecessary. All of my users had the problem disappear with the final release of AppleScript 1.8.3 and it hasn't come back with 10.2. Note that when I say AppleScript 1.8.3 I'm talking about the patch for both 9 and X. My experience is that both must be in place for the problem to disappear. Axel, I've trashed my patch, but can rebuild it (I have the source archived somewhere :-) in the meantime Išve sent you a copy of our modified MacPerl built with the patch. If it works for you then at least we know its the same problem.
