could you please check, if this issue happens in sierra sci as well? I guess it's a language-version specific game bug.

It doesn't. I added a DosBox screenshot of the original below.

Have to correct myself on this one.
It actually happens for the English version too. But only floppy.

it's possible to trigger it directly by warping to room 480, setting global 7Ch to 440 and then swimming left. Responsible method for the messageboxes is followedRedFishTalk::changeState(3)
