It is not a problem with the branch register command not being  
processed, but that branch registration seems to require that plug-in  
be associated with it (see 'plugin_menu_branch_register_invoker()' in  
app/pdb/plug-in-cmds.c). Apparently, when processed at the top level  
of a Script-fu, there is no "current-active-plugin"; and this leads to  
'gimp_marshal_VOID__STRING_STRING_STRING' failing because it is  
missing one of its parameters (the plug-in name).

A clever solution. However, I was unable to make it work with GIMP  
2.6.10+. What version of GIMP are you using?

I'm not sure how robust your kludge is. If it is not version specific  
then it may be working for you (and not me) because of something other  
going on than just the code you posted here (multiple procedure  
registrations in the same file perhaps). Could you provide a complete  
listing of your script?

Regards.
