That was indeed the problem, as I mentioned in an earlier message...
After playing a few hours (and writing high scores to the original disk),
I decided to attempt to make a backup copy of the disk. Grind-grind-grind,
and guess what, right after it copied the last track, >GURU<. (And this
was on a freshly booted machine; so the diskcopy was the guilty program.)
But, guess what? The copy works fine, and you can still write high scores
and everything...

So here's one game that is truly wonderful in many aspects, and furthermore,
is not copy-protected! And it only cost ~$35.  Highly recommended!
