Steve: I don't know for _sure_, but I've noticed the very same thing when running the Saturn 128K test program(s) on my IIe. I've attributed the failure to my having an accelerator in the test machine, but it may instead, as you suggest, have been because the program was designed for and is specific to a ][ or ][+. I've run the tests with both a genuine Saturn card and also a clone, and have _never_ passed. RoboCAD, as you've discovered, still runs fine. Go figure.
Are you able to interrupt (Ctrl-Reset) or reboot (OA-Ctrl-Reset) the machine when RoboCAD is active? Neither works for me. It just freezes up with one of the LEDs on the Saturn card lit.
