No...
...but I think I found the issue with grep. Try applying the attached patch
to the Python/frozenmain.c. It comments out the locale handling.
It seems that Python always calls its strdup function on the locale string.
On Android, this can apparently be null (as seen in the bug report you
linked to).

I don't have gdb on device; does the following tell you where Python's strdup is called?
_PyMem_RawStrdup /bld/python/Python-3.4.2/Objects/obmalloc.c:323
Is it possible at all to get a stack trace of the crash using gdb? Try
steps here.
That way we can see where Python's own strdup function is getting called.

They allow you to get a better idea of where libc is crashing.

Less detail than strace but it seems to be that python is segfaulting libc...

Not to me.
https://android.googlesource.com/platform/system/core/+/tools_r22/init/prope...
is the code that works with that file.
This explains it a bit (slides 24-29). Looks like something to do with interprocess communication. Likely has nothing to do with Python itself.
Maybe this would be useful?
