On 2.10.0-RC2 (with latest babl and gegl), running that script after
starting the gimp from a term gives a series of failed assertions:

gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed
gimp: Gimp-Core-CRITICAL: gimp_channel_push_undo: assertion 'gimp_item_is_attached (GIMP_ITEM (channel))' 
failed

This does not crash, but obviously the script no-longer works.

Welcome to the script-fu console!  And yes, things which worked in
even 2.9.6 no-longer work.  Happy lisping (if such a concept is
possible), or else just "good luck with debugging it".
