Perhaps this message could give more detail about the actual problem
than the generic "does not work" which provides no useful information.

A simpler definition for this function would be:

last_shelve () {
    p4 -G changes -s shelved -m 1 //depot/... | marshal_dump change
}

which will give the same result when you later capture its output with:

    change=$(last_shelve) &&
