Sometimes my script attempts to start Classic. I've narrowed it down to:

tell application "Keychain Scripting"

How do I force this to remain in OS X?

I've tried tell application "Keychain Scripting.app" -- want OS X
but the compiler changes it back to "Keychain Scripting".

I suppose I could delete all of my OS 9 files, but my users might not
want to do that. :-)

Use the full path to the OS X Keychain Scripting application file in the
'tell' command.

The fact that these shenanigans are required is one of the annoying things about AppleScript. Things that work for months suddenly fail. (does AS = Annoying Shenanigans?)

This works on my system:

tell application "Macintosh HD:System:Library:ScriptingAdditions:Keychain Scripting.app:"

But I won't know the name of the startup disk. I've tried every form I can think of using "of startup disk" without success. I'm stuck.
