crashing LiveCode regularly with this innocent-looking script

I’m using LiveCode 7.04 Community Edition, Build 10030.

Thanks, Ben, you got me 1/2 way there. Creating a button with just “send testyears()” on mouseup does exactly what I expected with no crash. 
So it’s not the function I should look at, it’s the invocation in the field script on closefield:   if me is not an integer then set the text of me to testYears()
So I’m not sure why an error there would break *after the first iteration* of the function, but there it is. 
   if the text of me is not an integer then set the text of me to testYears()
Same crash; will bang on it more. Please point & laugh if you see something funny.
