Ok, the failures were the same with fcgi and gunicorn app servers.
But it _works_ with django's dev server (which you must not use in
production due to memory/security holes etc.).
While ConTeXt runs it looks like:

TeX completes fast, and everything seems well afterwards.
But I started that app server from an active shell. Maybe that's the
difference?
Right, if I start gunicorn manually, it also works.
So, the culprit seems to be the automatic background start of the app
server via daemontools.
I'll have to test other means of starting and supervising the
processes - e.g. runit or supervisor.
Since I like Python and don't want to replace "init" yet, I try the
latter first.
Some hours later:
YES IT WORKS with supervisor so far!
Thank you all for your patience, ideas and help!
