BS has a very interesting and elegant memory management scheme called
"generation scavenging" that is described in the May 84 issue of both
Software Engineering Notes and SIGPLAN Notices.  It uses several
different memory areas for garbage collection.  The sizes of these
areas can be changed by setting environment variables.  Unfortunately,
the default sizes are set too small.  Try setting the environment variable
SurvivorLength to 35.  That got rid of the errors here.
