change label name

[Dan Shafer]

Just a SWAG and not tested, but have you tried changing the offending 
line to:

set the label of field labelName of stack "Armbase" to the name of 
field labelName of stack "Armbase"?

Since you've successfully changed its name, you should be able to use 
this to change the label, eh?
