Comment (by dwatteau):

 Hm I'm just using ScummVM's descumm -2 and scummvm --dump-scripts. Looking
 in a hex editor, I can't see any FF byte before 03.

 Anyway, I wonder if this isn't related to the length of the string? As it
 happens, the French translation is shorter than the original English line
 (which is quite unusual in French), so in case VAR_CHARCOUNT is about the
 number of chars in a string (I don't know), then the 90 threshold is maybe
 too high for the shorter French sentence? Padding with @@@@@ may help.
