Glitched Space Race Ending

Every couple of the space race runs I do I end up with a glitched ending cinematic.

Graphics are glitched and it takes longer for the spacecraft (dot) to appear, sometimes the sound appears though but sometimes it takes a minute or so to start, just showing a dark blue screen.

What I noticed is that dosbox freezes after trying to quit the game and when that happens I have to kill dosbox (and corrupt the video it's recording) unless I hit my 'stop recording'-key before it ends.

What I couldn't find out so far is, why it happens and if there's a way to prevent it. I am not sure if it's a bug with dosbox or a memory leak issue of civ. Any input is appreciated!

I switched to 474.01 (from .4) in my past ~15 runs or so. It has the glitch sometimes but it's different. So far I have encountered a different glitched ending, I call it the "pillar glitch":
