Sergie, I again owe you my thanks.
The prompt to re-examine the file ownership was spot-on. Somehow, they had become owned by root - possibly some time before, and not mysql: Thus the 600 mode was preventing maria from reading the file and the error message was not hinting at an incompatibility, but was accurate - it could not open the file. Chowning the ssl files back to mysql: allowed Maria to restart. I'm relieved the issue is entirely local!

Hi, Simon, The only remotely related change I could think of was a fix for MDEV-36229 - in 10.11.11 MariaDB had CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE capability, basically ignoring filesystem level access privileges. I know you wrote "privs are 700, owned by mysql user". But as this is the only thing I was able to find - double-check, perhaps? May be sudo mysql and try to read the file, or strace mariadbd startup if possible.
