It wasn't any of the additions. OSAX won't cause an applescript to crash
unless they're actually used. The "crash no matter what" bit, as
Michelle said, is caused by having a folder in the Scripting Additions
folder, of which most people seemed to have one, "Dialog" or something.
(I don't remember, having long since deleted mine.)
This doesn't mean, of course, that some of your OSAX won't crash your
Mac when used by a script. They just won't crash scripting itself.
