- physical IPs are .2/.7/.41 in the same /24 for the three routers in 
question
- standby IP is .1  out of the same /24

Anyway, I have solved this - kind of ... after removing the IP of the 
backup interface, I was able to add the standby IP on the primary 
interface  - after that, the router accepted the original IP on the 
backup interface without any further complaints ... standby is also 
working fine ... seems to me a problem in the configuration functions of 
the IOS ...
