Norris, thank you for trying that out for me.  I discovered the cause

I really had to search for this, but I found one other reference to
this same problem at http://www.cosmocode.de/en/blogs/detman/20060620161531/.
In further digging it turned out that I was using an early
implementation of the JSR223 (javax.script.Bindings was called
javax.script.Namespace).  I downloaded the final implementation of the
JSR at http://jcp.org/aboutJava/communityprocess/final/jsr223/index.html
and plugged that in and everything works as expected.  The problem
must have been in the first JSR223 wrapper around Rhino.  I was
unaware that there was a difference.
