I had forgotten to connect ISO 2014.*11* to the VM back again. Now it's exactly as you supposed. With cowsize_file set to 2g the very same packages that triggered the behaviour can be installed, the number of packages that can be installed before the issue comes up increases when cowfile_size gets increased, all this applies to both hardware and VM. So I guess you'll consider this a feature, not a bug, in particular as the problem doesn't affect the ISO's actual purpose but only arises if it's "misused" as ordinary live media (which is something I for one pretty much like to do for testing purposes...)? Or is there any way to have the file's size adjusted automatically corresponding to available resources?
