Thanks for also pointing out my user error ;)

As I wrote in my answer to Ansgar already, the strace output was only
meant to demonstrate what I perceived as the problem more concisely.
The transcript of the changed behaviour after adding read rights should
be enough to prove that it was a real problem during "regular" runs also
- obviously it wasn't the only problem.

Thanks for the tip - I wasn't aware of this option before.

Thanks
