Yes, that kernel didn't have the bug. It doesn't have the Stack Clash
security fix either I think?

Those have.

And you didn't even dare to check the libreoffice-writer bug list?

You yourself say "libreoffice writer java kernel crash".

The first bug says:

Found in versions linux/4.9.30-2+deb9u1, linux/4.11.6-1, linux/3.2.89-1, linux/4.9.30-2+deb9u2, linux/3.16.43-2+deb8u1

and has many "friends" merged with it.

Yes, that is i386 only.

Yes, this is still unfixed, but a kernel/OpenJDK bug. LO just calls
JNI_StartJVM or how it's called. _OpenJDK_ crashes then.

You can try removing this, this is just recommended to have a "full"
LO install if one did apt-get install libreoffice. That one's Java
and seems to be initialized on (most) "normal" writer startups, too
-> the Java crash.

Or use a architecture which wasn't already obsolete last decade. As you
say yourself: amd64 works.

Rene
