What Changed Between 1.6 and 1.7?

What changed between AppleScript 1.6 and 1.7 -- or maybe it's a difference between Mac OS 9.1 and 9.2.2 -- to break this following script segment?


try
set fileSyncLib to (load script file ":Timbuktu Scripts:(File Synch Library)")
-- set fileSyncLib to (load script file "(File Synch Library)")
on error errorMessage number errorNumber
if errorNumber = -43 then
set errorMessage to errorMessage & return & return & "The file (File Synch Library) may be missing from the Timbuktu Scripts folder."
end if
error errorMessage number errorNumber
end try

Under OS 9.1 and AppleScript 1.6, this works fine; the file "(File Synch Library)" is found and opened. Under Mac OS 9.2.2 and AppleScript 1.7, I get the File Not Found error. Has the manner of addressing files or paths changed?

The script that contains the above segment is in the same folder as the file it's trying to find, "(File Synch Library)" which is in the "Timbuktu Scripts" folder.

Any ideas how to make this work? Help, please.
