I like to keep ALSR enabled in the hope that it actually achieves 
something. You are right, I can disable it completely.

That helped. Thank you again.

Can you verify is ntpd sets new rlimit(RLIMIT_STACK) for the main thread,
and if yes, what this new limit is ?

aslr.stack_gap is the percentage for the gap on that stack, and since
default size of the main stack limit is quite large 512M, even 3%
(default gap upper limit) are whole 15M. If the new limit is less than
15M, there is a likely probability that only the gap is left after the
rlimit(2) call, leaving no space for the program frames.

At least this looks like a nice theory.
