Backtrace please?

I believe you ran into

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865866
https://lwn.net/Articles/727206/

and more (e.g. the LO build on i386 also is affected when running its
tests)

Short: Anything using Java in LO will crash on i386 after the Stack Clash
security fixes which happened after the stretch release.

You might want to use amd64...

Anyways: Reassigning to the kernel.
