No? How does it break your whole system?

No? Why? (Well, it got broken by the kernel security update I believey,
es, but still.)

Yes, and? That would be grave.

Aha. Why on earth do people still install i386?

I *believe* you ran into

https://lwn.net/Articles/727206/
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865303
and "friends" merged to it.

You wouldn't have this problem if you used amd64...

And you obviously didn't even dare to look whether the bug already was
reported:

Outstanding bugs -- Grave functionality bugs; More information needed (1 bug)

#865303 [G|MRu|=☣] [src:linux] libreoffice: Libreoffice Java features crash with Linux 3.16.43-2+deb8u1

and friends are visible in bugs.debian.org/libreoffice-writer

No, there isn't. (And a gdb bt would be better anyways).
