Evaluate, not Execute :). Thanks, Dino.

The code, for anyone else who's interested, is:
private static object MakePythonFile(ScriptEngine engine,
System.IO.Stream stream)
{
    return engine.Operations.Call(
        engine.CreateScriptSourceFromString("__builtins__['file']")
        .Compile().Evaluate(engine.CreateScope()),
    stream);
}
