Bug#915321: Mutex creation failed
Package: libc6
Version: 2.28-1
Severity: critical
Just after updating libc6 from 2.27-8 to 2.28-1 in Debian Unstable, loading package "httpuv" in R leads to a crash:
bones@equinox2:~$ R
R version 3.5.1 (2018-07-02) -- "Feather Spray"

From the message I understand this is directly related to libc6 and not R or httpuv.
Also, there was no update to R or httpuv done recently. The problem started just as I updated libc6.
Kernel version is 4.18.0-3-amd64.
Please tell me if any other information is needed to help identify the bug.
