Applescript bug? (crash with "do shell script")

I've been trying to write an applescript droplet with XCode (OS 10.3.2), and it keeps crashing. I don't think my code is buggy (it is very simple). All that is necessary is to create a new applescript droplet (New Project... -> applescript droplet) and replace "on open names" with the following code:

on open names
do shell script "ls"
--or any shell script command will do
end open

Build it, then drag any file to the application. I get an application crash. Does anyone else experience this, or is there something wrong with my setup?

For information, the backtrace is:

Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
Codes: KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000
