If the script was compiled on a PowerPC based Macintosh and run on an Intel Macintosh, Rosetta is involved because the script's code itself needs to be translated by Rosetta. But that's apparently not the issue in this situation.
I ran a number of test scripts, and discovered that the problem is with accessing "current date" within a Finder block. Other repeats within the Finder block run normally, as does "current date" outside any Finder block.
It's generally not a good idea to make calls to OSAXen within any tell block.
