'Could not save changes...' error

Hi,

Stupid error keeps popping up with an applet of mine:

Could not save changes to script "[applet name]" because of a scripting
system (OSA) error.

Does this mean anything specific, or is it just a general grouchy
AppleScript Bad-Hair-Day type of thing?

Notes:

- Applet has 15MB allocated (more than enough).

- The applet loads a heap of external modules at startup [1]; they are
meant to flush out at the end of runtime, but the applet appears subject to
the "doesn't garbage collect quick enough" issue that was discussed here
last week, as it ends up ~860KB on disk when it quits.

- The error doesn't seem to appear the first time the applet is run after
being recompiled, only on subsequent runs (I think).

- The script itself works absolutely fine, but it's kinda embarrassing to
have this error pop up just when it's done.

- Using Smile 1.8.4 on OS8.6, AS1.3.7.


Any ideas/suggestions most welcome.

Cheers,

has

[1] (e.g. AWPS and tableLib, which go on to load their own modules as well.)
