Your sample stack included in the bug report, as well as a more complete 
example that includes an actual handler definition, both work as 
expected in v9dp1 under Ubuntu 14..04.

Think about it: if the "set the script..." command didn't work, the 
Script Editor wouldn't work, and it wouldn't be possible to do any 
scripting in LiveCode at all.

I suspect something else is in play in your running of the test....
