I thought, maybe the problem is JS Rom problem, so installed Minerva v1.98, but compiling the C68 programme would not compile till the bufp option wss increased. Strange it is not required on SMSQ/E.
I am pretty sure I don't have to use this option on any of my Minerva and SMSQ/E black box installations. Are you sure the C68 version for the tests was the same everywhere?
I do recall C68 wants to use file storage for buffers if it runs out of its allocated buffer space - That is the reason for the "-tmp ram1_" command line switch used in the initial invocation. If there's no ram disk installed on the box, that obviously won't work and might lead to the error message.
Quite the contrary, you experience this because at some point in time it was optimized for large programs. This is a case of code not matching documentation anymore. The default BUFP is now 500kb, the default BUFL is 200kb, too large for your Trump Card. By specifying a smaller BUFP you lower the memory consumption to a point where it starts working again. Of course it doesn't help that the error message is hopelessly broken...

Mystery solved. Thanks Marcel.
Cheers,
