Interesting. I *did* try myself before posting, but I did this in the
same script:

on mouseUp
  global xyzzy
  local xyzzy
end mouseUp

and the compiler properly complains about that. I guess it's not quite
smart enough to catch this across different scripts. I'd file a bug
about this, but since I don't use global vars anyway I don't think
I'll bother.
