In the Mac OS X Finder, if you do a Show Info on the droplet, is the
checkbox for "Run in Classic" (or words to that effect) checked? That would
explain it.
Or, had the script been compiled while the machine was booted into Mac OS 9?
If so, maybe it kept a persistent reference to the scripting addition and to
the Mac OS 9 version of StuffIt Engine.
I assume the script doesn't use the documented technique to force a
scripting addition to run in the Classic environment (a tell block to a
variable set to an alias to the scripting addition, nested in a using terms
from block, and so on).
