I have removed all folders regarding cinnamon (.local/share/cinnamon,
.cinnamon, .config/whatever) and after some more concoctions 
(renaming Desktop) I finally get a running cinnamon again.

No idea what had happened, but it was 100% reproducible, after warm
and cold boot as well as several login/log-out iterations.
