Hi,
We just installed the final 10.6.2 release and discovered that spurious Apple Event timeout has NOT yet been fixed.
Using Matt script (see below) 10.6.2 stop at about 65530 events in less than a minute.
Any chance that will be fixed soon?
We need to wait again some months and the 10.6.3?
We can understand that in others 10.6.x areas there are some bugs that must be fixed but in AppleScript area which bugs are more important that this?
I would not be boring but we would like to remember to all AS developers that this BUG prevent any customers with new machines equipped with 10.6.x to use any AppleScript, AppleScript Studio or AppleScriptObjC (ASOC) apps to works correctly generating random timeout that can appear after few seconds/minutes.
There is any workaround for continue to work and develop under 10.6.x?
We are not happy today :-(

Matt Neuburg Script test:
set i to 0
repeat -- forever
set i to i + 1
with timeout of 5 seconds
try
tell application "Finder"
count Finder windows
end tell
on error errMsg number errNum
display dialog i
error errMsg number errNum
end try
end timeout
if i > 70000 then
display dialog "You passed the barrier!"
exit repeat
end if
end repeat
