I checked the configuration this morning: tftp is enabled via xinetd, 
here is its configuration:

service tftp
{
         socket_type             = dgram
         protocol                = udp
         wait                    = yes
         user                    = root
         server                  = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
         server_args             = -s /var/lib/tftpboot

Stupid question. There exist several tftpd implementations in Linux.
My version (atftp) does not use the -s option, the path is simply the
last argument. So it would be server_args  = /var/lib/tftpboot  

My man page says:

--secure, -s
        Change root directory on startup.  This means  the  remote  host
        does  not need to pass along the directory as part of the trans-
        fer, and may add security.  When --secure is specified,  exactly
        one  directory should be specified on the command line.  The use
        of this option is recommended for security as well  as  compati-
        bility  with  some  boot  ROMs  which  cannot  be easily made to
        include a directory name in its request.

I don't fully understand what it means, but I tried to ommit the -s 
option. Now, DTU is showing 2D for a while, then switches to 4G with the 
message "FW load: bad read" and then to 27D.
