A couple of weeks ago, one of my group ran a one shot epic game and in it we went up against the Tarrasque.
During the battle with it, our cleric wanted to cast Greater Bestow Curse from Complete Divine on it. Using Assay Resistance he was able to bypass the creature's SR but a question came up on the effect he wanted to use. I forgot the exact wording of the effect but it essentially says that one use of the spell is to lower one ability score to 1 permanently.
Now the entry on the Tarrasque says (from the SRD):
"immunity to fire, poison, disease, energy drain, and ability damage"
It is the ability damage that gave us pause. Is the effect from Greater Bestow Curse or Bestow Curse for that matter considered ability damage?
