Hypercard 'too many variable' bug

I have a hypercard stack that has about 96 global variables.  Everything
works perfectly until the value of the first 30 becomes 4(all of them)  then
upon accessing the 31st, I get the 'too many variable' message.

If the value of the first 25 variables becomes five then accessing the 26th
variable gives me that message.

I don't think variable problems should be dependent of the contents of those
variables.  Anyone know what the problem is?  Things didn't get better after
going from an SE to a Mac II with 4Mbytes.

Thank you.
