Well, what was the script? How can anyone say what's a bug if you don't show
your code? It's possible to retrieve a key's password sometimes, that's
certain.

tell application "Keychain Scripting"
    launch
    tell keychain 1
        get password of key 2 -- works
    end tell
end tell

So if you have code where it doesn't work, show that code so that others can
help test it. m.
