I get the same error. However using the other grobner package in maxima
i get a result quickly:

load(affine);
?.. lots of compilations

(%o9)       /usr/local/share/maxima/5.25.1/share/affine/affine.lisp
(%i10) grobner_basis(eqs);

I have not checked that your polys generate the same ideal than these very
simple ones, but it may be that the case is so degenerate that it triggers a
bug in the other algorithm.
