On line 5 of the function, the variable v:lnum was referenced.
>From :help v:lnum:
*v:lnum* *lnum-variable*
v:lnum Line number for the 'foldexpr' |fold-expr| and 'indentexpr'
expressions, tab page number for 'guitablabel' and
'guitabtooltip'. Only valid while one of these expressions is
being evaluated. Read-only when in the |sandbox|.
The problem was that guitablabel isn't called from within console Vim,
so v:lnum doesn't have a valid value for the purposes of
tabpagebuflist().

Not really. There isn't an analog to the 'guitablabel' setting in
console Vim. The closest thing is 'tabline', which operates rather
differently. Instead of writing a function which makes one label at a
time, in console Vim you build the tabline in one shot.
Read up on it:
:help tabline
There's a nice example in the docs that you can tweak to your liking.
