Do you have libreoffice-wiki-publisher installed? This could be it, LO trying to
instatiate it and as it's Java it's crashing since the kernel security update fixing

... only in i386, not on amd64.
See https://lwn.net/Articles/727206/
https://lwn.net/Articles/727703/
See also https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303 and "friends".
Somewhere there is also the boot option to disable the security(!) fix
to make Java work again.
To confirm, please send a gb backtrace; see
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/Debug_Information
If this is this bug this is a kernel and/or Java bug, just manifesting in LO.
