I have run that code several times in the latest 2.7.0 sim mode, and 
according to the backplot I believe it to be doing exactly what was 
wanted.

That leaves machine accel and speed limits being exceeded, I suspect in 
the y axis only.

2 things to check first, one, that the G0 moves are not being commanded at 
a rate faster than the machine can accelerate, so in the .ini file, reduce 
the default speeds and acceleration settings to half what they are now to 
see if the problem does away.

I would also check the step timings in that .ini file against what the 
wiki page says your drives need.  There, longer doesn't generally hurt, 
but less can eat your lunch.  Some gecko's seem to get slower with age, so 
if they do look ok, set then for about 1.5 times what the table shows & 
see if it effects the error.  It should not. If it does, either leave it 
set long or have the gecko fixed.

A third and forth but slim chance might be slow opto's in the breakout 
board, or puny drivers in your parport.

A fifth possibility is the psu voltage drops enough when 2 axis's are 
brought up to speed at the same time, a theory that can be checked by 
breaking the
G0 Z#up
G0 X# Y# type moves into
G0 X#
G0 Y#


Those timing tables are at:
