[Plugin: Featured Content Gallery] $gallery_path/scripts/jd.gallery.js.php downloads without executi

Upgraded to 3.3.1, and the plugin seems to work, except the jd.gallery.js.php file – which is supposed to execute on the server, but doesn’t. It causes this error in the browser:

jd.gallery.js.php:38SyntaxError: Unexpected token ‘<‘

var gallery = {
    initialize: function(element, options) {
        this.setOptions({
            showArrows: true,
            showCarousel: true,
            showInfopane: true,
            embedLinks: true,
            fadeDuration: <?=$fcg_fade_duration ?>,  // <--- not executing
