OSX has broken recording, or most of it.
I am not too astonished, since the way the OS handles user events is
fundamentally different in OSX.
If I had to program recording into AppleScript under OSX, I would
personally resign and look for another job. Reentrance is probably
not a minimal issue here.
a) Recording in Mac OS X has more bugs than in 9, and fewer recordable
apps, but it does work.
b) Reentrance is not an issue at all.
c) When the Finder was rewritten for Mac OS X, recordability was low on
the priority list and was left out. It's still on the list and may
come back some day, but the reason you can't record the Finder in X is
that the Finder in X isn't recordable, simple as that.
Entourage and QuickTime Player are recordable, try those apps.
