I can confirm this is a DP 13 regression, caused by the fix to bug 16351 (
https://github.com/livecode/livecode/pull/3448)

The error is occurring in the data grid behavior.

I think problem is something to do with 'the target' and 'me' evaluating to
different things in a context where they should evaluate to the same thing.
