I have finally nailed it down. It came from a misconfiguration of my
JNDI datasource (which basically had no config at all, starting with no
connection URL....). This produces a lot of other NPEs in various places
in Roller along the line.
It is interesting to see that in this case, the JPA implementation used
apparently doesn't really honor its API doc since an exception was
expected in the case of a misconfiguration rather than returning a null
value from its factory (see my patch, which error message isn't really
helping).

I'm having troubles running the current 4.0 trunk with JPA. I have a

to fix it. It's probably some configuration that I'm missing and you've
probably already seen this.
Denis,
I haven't seen that particular error before.
On a related note. I just deployed the latest code from the trunk to
rollerweblogger.org and I'm using the JPA backend, everything seem to
be working fine.
