Very small editor "window"

It does.

And I came nearer to the cause of the problems: What I forgot, not only in
my description here, is that, for debugging, all output is piped through
tee. Though, for many years and many Debian and Ubuntu versions, it was no
problem to pipe joe's output through tee, it now does not work any more.
Without the pipe, joe works fine.

As I have no idea how to change the new unwanted behaviour, I will switch
to nano.
