This points out the error in the __CONFIG directive.  Note that it tried to
put the config word at FFFh, which is definitely wrong.  Apparently __CONFIG
specifies both the address and the section name, and you get an error if
this disagrees with the linker file.

The only part of what you reported that doesn't make sense is that it worked
in a real chip.  I can see how MPLAB's bug could make it consistant with
itself.  Did you use config bits other than 1?  Have you verified that any
config bits set to 0 are actually in effect?  Did the programmer wrap the
address somehow or otherwise correct MPLAB's error?  What programmer did you
use?
