I can reproduce this with Opera 7.23 on Linux.

I would blame Opera, because that version does not seem to support
<script type="application/x-javascript">, but it does not honor
Content-Script-Type [1] either and goes on to try to execute the inline
script which will fail because the called function was defined in an
"application/x-javascript" script element.
For now, the only workaround I can suggest (unless you're willing to
upgrade to a beta version, Opera 7.50 Beta 1 seems to be "fixed" wrt
this) is to turn off opening the JavaScript console on errors
(Tools->Preferences->Multimedia->JavaScript options->Open JavaScript
console on error here).
[1] Link Checker 3.9.2 sends Content-Script-Type as a real HTTP header,
I've changed it to use <meta http-equiv> instead in the development
version. This does not affect the behaviour with Opera 7.23 though.
