I have the same experience using very vanilla AS when I run an applet with similar language:
(please forgive what probably is my inefficient use of AS - I think I recorded this)
tell application "Finder"
activate
select folder "Current Order" of folder "Artwork" of folder "Workflow" in the startup disk
delete selection
make new folder at folder "Artwork" of folder "Workflow" of startup disk
tell folder "untitled folder" of folder "Artwork" of folder "Workflow" of startup disk
set name to "Current Order"
end tell
When I instruct the trash to empty, I get a message that I can't delete because it is in use. It is inconvenient but the old return stroke takes care of it.

Has anyone else seen this behavior or is there some "Real Bad Thing"

going on with my system?
