Multiple instances of osascript == Bus error

Does anyone know why you can't run multiple instances of /usr/bin/osascript simultaneously without getting a bus error?

a simple test case: execute 'osascript -e "return null"' in two Terminal.app windows at the same time; the second instance to start up will crash ("Bus error").

I seem to get the same problem with a command-line tool I've written using Cocoa and OSA which executes some AppleScript. It works fine if I just run one instance of the tool, but if I attempt to run two instances at the same time, the second instance crashes with a bus error.

(And if I try to run both my command-line tool and osascript at the same time, which ever one I launch second will crash)

Can anyone suggest how I might resolve this? Is this a well-known problem? I have already posted this query to applescript-implementors, but got no responses and have searched both the omnigroup and apple list archives.

I'm using 10.1.2 but I have seen it under 10.1.3 as well.

Thanks,

Ryan
