Extensis Suitcase 10 scripting

Has anyone done any scripting of Suitcase 10? I am trying to script taking
fonts that are already in the Suitcase 10 database and adding them into an
existing font set. From the Suitcase dictionary:

add reference: Add a reference to the item to a set
add reference reference -- the object to be referenced
to reference -- the container (set) to add a reference to the item
to

This is basically what I am trying to do:

--------------------------------------------------------------

set theSetName to "Test Set" -- The set name
set fontName to "Aachen.t1" --The font name

tell application "Suitcase FontEngine(tm)"
set FileRef to Font File fontName
add reference FileRef to Font Set theSetName -- this is where the error
occurs
end tell

--------------------------------------------------------------

The error message:
Script Error:
Suitcase FontEngine(tm) got an error: Font File id 5000237 doesn't
understand the add reference message.

I stole the "add reference FileRef to Font Set theSetName" from an example
script, so I know the syntax is okay. I just can't figure out what that line
is looking for as an object after the "add reference"

If it matters, I am running OS 9.1 on a G4 with Applescript 1.5.5 and
Suitcase Font Engine VS 10.1.1.

Thanks...
