A deficiency in the RT logging infrastructure causes non-email-sending
Scrips to not be logged as well as those that send email.

Instead of putting return 1; which will cause the Scrip to do nothing,
make the Custom Action Prepare be

RT->Logger->error("Preparing custom scrip");
return1;

and a similar message in the commit, and ensure that the Condition is
On Create.

If you're really not seeing error messages from that, then something
is quite wrong.
