Has anybody successfully ported Edinburgh SML to Apollo (SR 9.7 software) ?

Our problem is the following: starting SML in its raw state from
smlcore.exp.backup (step 3 in the README instructions) crashes immediately
with the message "Memory fault".
Invoking the program explicitly (by typing:
  /fam.src/fam -h 2000 smlcore.exp.backup smlcore.exp
) seems to work, but any simple input (e.g. - 3+2;) crashes with an access
violation in routine "RunState" at line 547.

Please can anybody give us a hint what might be wrong?
