I'll keep you posted about what I find out from ANALYS!
Posted below. I've elided the core dump here so not to spam everybody; will send
off-list.
Note that I only copied over the blocks of [0,1]CRASH.SYS, and overlaid them on a copy of
the disk image that I already had on my machine, then booted that under SIMH to run
ANALYS. Is copying over [0,1]CRASH.SYS enough, or need I take the time to image the
entire disk after the dump?
Just the crash file. However...

That's puzzling. How did you generate the crash dump? I remember that message but
not what causes it (if I ever knew).
Perhaps it wants to read the defaults. If so, copying the monitor SIL file would take
care of that.
Is the system on which you're running this ANALYS run using the same monitor as the
failed system? Maybe that's the issue. If ANALYS is using current monitor offsets to
find data structures in the dump file, that won't work if you're analyzing a dump
from a different system.
