The error code is #'inappropriate operation', which is probably PrimErrInappropriate. But based on #primitiveStringReplace that shouldn't happen, because both arrays have the same format, and the error doesn't happen when the sizes match. So, I think it's either a compiler issue, or this primitive also has a jitted version, which is buggy.

The same issue is present on 64-bit Linux. When the target is smaller than the source, the primitive will just fail for 4-byte collections. Here's an example with WordArray:
source := #(1 2 3) asWordArray. target := WordArray new: 2. "change to 3 to make it use the primitive" target replaceFrom: 1 to: target size with: source startingAt: 1
I'm not sure this is a useful data point, but it does work as expected on a 64-bit V3 image (format 68002). Comparing the sources for #primitiveStringReplace in oscog versus interpreter VM, they seem to have identical logic for array size check, and I do not see any other meaningful difference, so I do not see an obvious reason for the problem.
The same problem is present for 2-byte (DoubleByteArray) and 8-byte (DoubleWordArray) collections, but, to my surprise, it works for ByteArray. (Haven't checked the C code yet.)
DoubleByteArray and DoubleWordArray are not supported on V3 so I can't check those.
Probably someone will need to look at it in the simulator or gdb debugger.

It sounds like a VM bug. I am away and cannot check anything further right now, but one thing I would mention is that there has been a good deal of recent VM development that may be related to this, so if you don't mind experimenting you may want to try one of the latest VMs here:
https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/releases/tag/201608171728
That will at least let you see if it is a bug that someone has already fixed (which I think is quite likely).

Thanks, Dave,
There are a number of errors possible in that primitive and I don't know if one can see the particular code after a failure. I was able to narrow it down, though. Adding this to FloatArray:
testreplaceFrom: start to: stop with: replacement startingAt: repStart " (FloatArray new: 8) testreplaceFrom: 1 to: 3 with: (FloatArray new: 3) startingAt: 1 " <primitive: 105> self halt.
Runs fine in 32-bit squeak and halts in 64-bit.

How to see primitive source these days:
The code is in the VMMaker repository 'http://source.squeak.org/VMMaker'.
For the Spur VM, the package is 'VMMaker.oscog'. For purposes of just taking a quick look at the code, you can load the latest version VMMaker.oscog-eem.2079 (this will not exactly corresponding to the version you are running but here I assume you just want a quick look at what primitive 105 is doing).
To find the numbered primitive, see CoInterpreter class>>initializePrimitiveTable, which calls StackInterpreter class>>initializePrimitiveTable, which shows primitive 105 as #primitiveStringReplace.
The Smalltalk code for this primitive is InterpreterPrimitives>>primitiveStringReplace. The generated C code for this can be found in the GitHub repository https://github.com/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm, look for the primitiveStringReplace function in opensmalltalk-vm/src/vm/gcc3x-cointerpmt.c.

I'm was copying a FloatArray and it seems not to be using the primitive to move the data over to the copy. Float>>replaceFrom:to:with:startingAt: says it uses a primitive, but it seem to fallback to the code in SequenceableCollection. How can I see the priitive code to see what the issue may be? This is what it says it does:
replaceFrom: start to: stop with: replacement startingAt: repStart "Primitive. This destructively replaces elements from start to stop in the receiver starting at index, repStart, in the collection, replacement. Answer the receiver.

This is what I did to see if the prim failed:
replaceFrom: start to: stop with: replacement startingAt: repStart "Primitive.

And it did fail and I'm puzzled as to why:
