FWIW: an article on SL's "new math":

The key phrase in that article is:

Apple has started using the 1000^3 definition.

So I suspected that my calculation of the variable imageSize in my script

else
"hdiutil create -type SPARSE -megabytes " & imageSize & " -fs HFS+ -layout NONE " & imagePath & ¬
" -volname " & quoted form of imageName & " -attach"
end if
do shell script the result

would have to be re-worked to reflect the change. But my experience, once I created the sparsebundle, seems to indicate that Apple also needs to re-work some of its variables. My experience using Disk Utility seems to confirm this.
