I can do this to get it to compile without errors:
tell application theApp
using terms from application "Keychain Scripting"
name of current keychain
end
end tell
But am I still risking Classic loading at run time or, worse, a
dialog box asking the user to locate the Keychain Scripting
application?
Nope; found this on Apple's Russia site:
You can nest Tell and Using Terms From blocks within each other.
If the Using Terms From block is within a Tell block, AppleScript
uses terms from the target specified by the Tell block.
So the nesting you have there is ideal.

Or just launch the right app beforehand:
tell app "Finder"
open application file id "com.apple.keychainscripting"

tell app "Keychain Scripting"
count keychains

That works sometimes, but not always. If I put a delay 4 in between
the two tell blocks, it seems to help, but the uncertainty is
unsettling. And without the delay I've seen this error "Keychain
Scripting got an error: Application isn't running."
OK, then let's combine the methods, and use Finder to get the path:
tell app "Finder"
set kcs_path to application file id "com.apple.keychainscripting" as string
end tell
tell app kcs_path
using terms from application "Keychain Scripting"
name of current keychain
end using terms from
end tell
-boo
hoping that disabling PureVoice will stop his Eudora from crashing
