In the same session (same environment variables, database, termcap, etc.), the compiled (c4gl) version of the program runs ok.

Are you connecting with SHM connectors? Have you tried exporting this in the shell: INFORMIXSHMBASE=16384 perhaps with a few different parameters until it starts to work. Depending on the O/S, I think this parameter might need setting for the engine too before starting it up. HP is one, don't know about Intel/Linux. This parameter affects the address that the shared memory is plugged into a running program. If it conflicts with some other memory segment then the process will core dump. Changing this parameter shifts the attachment point.
