You've said this a couple of times, but I have handlers where the first line
is commented and the handler *is* disabled. Can you give an example of where
this is not true?

There's an example (rather trivial one) in the Bugzilla entry (2468)

A more serious one is

on A
  local tLine
end A

on mouseUp
  B
end mouseUp

on B
  put "original B string" into tLine
  C
  put tLine & cr after msg
end B

on C
  put "the C version" into tLine
end C

This prints out "original B string" to the message box. Comment out the first line of A, and it will now output "the C version".

The comment has disabled handler A, except for the local tLine statement, which has become script-local, and therefore changed the effect of the (implicit) declarations of tLine within B and C. So now the two handlers interfere with each other, when normally they wouldn't.
