Comment (by ericlewis):

 Reproduced.

 The issue is that `wp_localize_script()` doesn't instantiate `$wp_scripts`
 if it doesn't
 exist^[https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.9.1/src/wp-
 includes/functions.wp-scripts.php#L120 1]^, bailing silently.

 On the admin side, `$wp_scripts` exists very early (before
 `admin_init`)^[https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/3.9.1/src/wp-
 admin/admin.php#L90 2]^. But on the front-end, there's no
 guarantee`$wp_scripts` will ever be instantiated.
