Re: Error resolving references

Changing the first line to

set propList to {record1:{a:1, b:2}}

yields the same erroneous result. As do several other variations, like
making the nested subrecord into a named variable that is set first.

Changing the last two lines to

get contents of theRef

returns 1, as expected.

So it certainly does appear to be a bug.
