OK; that was the clue. I already saw openjdk accessed in your strace but that's
the case also in normal startup if you have Java stuff.

Indeed, LOs Java stuff crash :(. Checked with "just" creating a database.
(which uses hsqldb.)

Downgrading _the kernel_ (and of course rebooting) fixes it. 

No idea whether only LOs Java stuff is affected or more JDK usage (besides
#865311...), but...
