No, I've been using colons the whole time, because I knew I'd need to be
using this script on 9.
But I've been doing my development on X, because it seems to be the more
limited of the two right now, in regards to AS.
Of course, if I were having this problem in X, I'd just do "touch
volume:folder:file" and I'd be golden...

Seth,
Did you remember to change the path name delinators & path
to reflect OS 9's filing system correctly? In OS X, paths
are delineated by /, but in OS 9 they are deliniated by
colon (:).
Example:
Mac HD:System Folder:Preferences:AppleScript Preferences
Sometimes it's the simple things we overlook that kill us.
Best Wishes,
