..., that is, SIGSEGV, supposedly when bash tries to expand the last path
component glob ('*'):

(That means, I do have a workaround.)
I cannot tell when exactly this started failing, but it must've been very
recently, last few days.
Recent (automated) package updates that are supposedly relevant, per
'/var/log/dpkg.log':
[...]
2020-10-19 08:28:50 upgrade libc6:amd64 2.31-3 2.31-4
[...]
2020-10-19 08:29:59 upgrade libc-l10n:all 2.31-3 2.31-4
[...]
2020-10-19 08:32:22 upgrade locales-all:amd64 2.31-3 2.31-4
[...]
2020-10-19 08:37:57 upgrade locales:all 2.31-3 2.31-4
[...]
I can't confirm for sure, but I'm reasonably confident that the problem
did not occur at this point. Then, this night:
[...]
2020-10-22 06:51:53 upgrade bash:amd64 5.0-7 5.1~rc1-2
[...]
So that's probably it. I'll later retry with downgraded bash.

Thomas
