It seems like that should work as written so I think it would be worth  
filing. If you need to get this working now just build up your dynamic  
reference (which you probably already thought of but I'll point out  
anyway).

put the name of stack "revLibrary" into stackObject
put "stack" && quote & "revSaving" & quote && stackObject into  
stackObject
put the long name of stackObject into correctResult
put correctResult
