Since support seems to be next to non-existent for real issues and ‘fixes’ on the net are dated and don’t work: Here is a hacky method that is guaranteed to work for other pros out there:

// Include WordPress
define('WP_USE_THEMES', false);
require('./wp-load.php');
$numposts = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_status = 'publish'");
$paged = ($_GET['paged']) ? $_GET['paged'] : 0;
$per_page=(int)get_option('posts_per_page');
query_posts('orderby=date&order=DESC&offset='.((int)$paged*$per_page));
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
echo '<div class="pwrap">';
echo '<div class="ptitle"><div style="margin-left:5px;">'.the_title('','',false).'</div></div>';
echo '<div class="pcontent"><div style="margin:5px;">'.get_the_excerpt().'</div></div>';
echo '<div class="pfooter"><div style="margin-left:5px;">'.get_the_date().' '.get_the_time().'</div></div>';
echo '</div>';
endwhile;
echo '<div style="width:100%;">';
if($paged!="0"){
	if($paged=="1"){
		echo '<a style="position:relative;top:0;left:10px;color:#fff;background:#6E543A;text-decoration:none;" href="./blog.php">Newer Posts</a>';
	}else{
		echo '<a style="position:relative;top:0;left:10px;color:#fff;background:#6E543A;text-decoration:none;" href="./blog.php?paged='.(string)((int)$paged-1).'">Newer Posts</a>';
	}
}
if(((int)$paged+$per_page)<($numposts-1)){
	echo '<a style="position:relative;top:0;left:730px;color:#fff;background:#6E543A;text-decoration:none;" href="./blog.php?paged='.(string)((int)$paged+1).'">Older Posts</a>';
}
echo '</div>';
?>
